Bungie, the company that brought us the entire Halo series, has partnered with publishing giant Activision under a ten year exclusive worldwide publishing deal. Bungie has also announced that they’re working on a new “action game universe” – and it sounds like it may be some sort of subscription-based FPS MMO. Whatever they’re working on, it will be available across all platforms.

This is huge news. Bungie is one of the most successful game developers in history and Activision is known for throwing millions of dollars into budgets. Considering the recent Infinity Ward debacle, I wouldn’t be surprised at all if Activision doesn’t turn them into their new flagship to compete with Respawn Entertainment.
