The studio will still release multiplatform games and "self-publish and reach players wherever they choose to play."

Ryan added: "We've had a strong partnership with Bungie since the inception of the Destiny franchise, and I couldn't be more thrilled to officially welcome the studio to the PlayStation family."

And Bungie boss Pete Parsons commented: "Our original universes have immense potential and, with SIE's support, we will propel Bungie into becoming a global multimedia entertainment company dedicated to delivering on our creative vision."
