Update 5/16/2025 12:56 a.m. ET: Bungie has responded and blamed the incident on a former employee. The studio says it’s reaching out to the artist in question and conducting a full review of its in-game assets for Marathon. “We immediately investigated a concern regarding unauthorized use of artist decals in Marathon and confirmed that a former Bungie artist included these in a texture sheet that was ultimately used in-game,” the studio posted on X.
I didn’t catch that. They’re obviously POS and only care once they get caught. I’m glad the artist had articles written about it and support behind her. Maybe they’ll pay her now?

So, Joseph Cross, the main art director is a “former employee”?
