Bungie to Compensate and Acknowledge Artist for Uncredited Destiny 2 Scene

The creators of Destiny 2, Bungie, are set to provide compensation and recognition to an artist whose work was unintentionally featured in a recent cutscene. This development comes after the artist, Julian Faylona, also known as ElementJ21, publicly noted the resemblance between their artwork and an image in the scene. In an interview, Faylona expressed surprise at the discovery, stating it was unexpected and prompted them to speak out. Bungie has attributed the oversight to an external vendor who mistakenly used the artist's work as a reference, believing it to be official Bungie artwork. A Bungie representative stated that the company has reached out to the artist and plans to take necessary steps to rectify the situation, including compensation and proper crediting for their work.
