While it’s been forever bewildering to thing how one of the biggest shooters of the past two generations has eluded the PC, but speaking to GameReactor, Bungie’s lead engineer Luis Villegas seems to think that by dropping support for the aging PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 could convince the company to take on another platform.
Presumably handling 4 different versions of the same game was a little too much for Bungie to consider adding a fifth to the pile, but following on from the release of Rise of Iron, the company has shed the weight of the older generation citing how 90% of the current player-base has moved up to current gen platforms.
While still supporting the other 10% in playing what they’ve paid for, releasing the new expansion solely on the higher powered consoles may free up the resources needed to have Bungie work on bringing the Shooter/MMO hybrid to the keyboard legion.
Rise of Iron, the newest Destiny expansion is out now for current-gen console users. How long us PC denizens will have to wait is still uncertain.
