It's claimed that Bungie is now focused on formulating a "smoother onboarding process" for Destiny 2 in a bid to attract more new players.

Codename Frontiers will make up Year 11 of the long-running franchise, though Bungie hasn't revealed what exactly it is.
Codenamed "Payback," the sequel has reportedly been in development since The Witch Queen, though "heavily in the background."
The sequel will reportedly not have classes, allowing players to choose any ability. It's unknown if Destiny 2 loot will carry over.
