Bungie
Microsoft acquired Bungie in 2000, and its project "" was repurposed as a launch title for Microsoft's Xbox console. "Halo" became the Xbox's "killer app", selling millions of copies and spawning the "Halo" series. On October 5, 2007, Bungie announced that it had split from Microsoft and become a privately held independent company, Bungie LLC, while Microsoft retained ownership of the "Halo" franchise intellectual property. It signed a ten-year publishing deal with Activision in April 2010. Their first project was the 2014 first-person shooter, "Destiny", which was followed by "Destiny 2" in 2017. In January 2019, Bungie announced it was ending this partnership, and would take over publishing for "Destiny".
