Lars Bakken

The final developer on our list is Lars Bakken, the senior design lead at Bungie for the game Marathon. Bakken has been with Bungie since 2005 and has worked on Destiny 1 and 2 since then. He became well known as the competitive design lead for Destiny 1 – focusing primarily on PvP. We spoke with Bakken a few years ago in an interview about the Trials of Osiris.
As mentioned, Lars is still active at Bungie and is currently working on Marathon, the new extraction shooter. His talents are well utilized here, as PvP is set to constitute a large part of the game.
These were 10 well-known developers from Bungie that you probably remember from the old “Destiny 1” days. 10 years have passed since Bungie started the light and darkness saga of Destiny. So many moments, and yet after The Final Shape the saga is over. But Bungie is already looking to the future, and in it, Destiny 2 will continue.
