Reigniting a fanbase with a franchise-defining brand campaign
More than just an expansion, Beyond Light needed to signal a bold new era for the franchise – while recapturing the awe-inspiring emotion of the original Destiny.
Working as global lead creative agency with Bungie, we created a brand campaign that smashed pre-order expectations, thanks to a reinvigorated fanbase of core and lapsed players, and a legion of new players welcomed into the fold.
Fans were hyped by a series of mysterious tease-and-reveals – unveiling our moodier look and cerebral brand voice. The campaign then amplified through a phased series of impactful assets, keeping fans hooked right the way up to launch.
