2:09He says reports indicate Haven will remain open without immediate job cuts.

6:23Tassi argues that assigning Haven to Destiny would make business and development sense for Sony.

The studio stays open. That is the detail Paul Tassi picks out of reports that Sony has canceled Haven Studios' Fairgame$: according to the reporting he discusses, the cancellation brings neither an immediate shutdown nor job cuts.

From there, he follows a possibility close to his channel's heart. Could Haven become a support studio for Bungie's Destiny work? Tassi connects the team's live-service experience with plans to bring back vaulted content, while also discussing remaster rumors and future expansions. He sees a logical fit, but the proposed assignment remains a theory rather than an announcement.

The commentary was the most-watched of his three uploads this week, reaching about 53,000 views. Viewers are working through the staffing question themselves: some connect Haven with Bungie's search for a partner, while another suggests supporting Marathon could free developers with Destiny experience to return to that game.

The other uploads widened the lens. His GTA 6 news roundup covered preorders, PS5 Pro features, frame rates and PC-release questions; "This Week At Tassi (11/6/26): Crazy GTA 6 Preorders, Elder Scrolls in HAMMERFELL, Ocarina GOTY?" brought several franchises into the conversation.

Channel-wide daily views are running at roughly three times their usual pace, although subscribers were unchanged over the week. Among nearby gaming-commentary channels, OhNoItsAlexx and Synthetic Man had larger weekly view gains, while Br0leg was quieter.

Tassi's older essay on the sustainability of enormous game budgets also remains among his busiest uploads. Between that and Haven's possible next assignment, the business behind the games is giving his mostly-Destiny channel plenty to discuss.

What viewers say

I was thinking the same thing when I was reading about the cancellation. Bungie mentioned finding a “partner” in the unvaulting article, and a studio that has spent the last 3-4 years on a live service shooter that is soon-to-be cancelled might be a good enough fit.

To me, it would make more sense to have Haven personel with live service experience provide support to Marathon; so that Bungie personel on Marathon with Destiny experience can begin unvaulting. If the Fairgame$ people have to work on unfamiliar code either way, then freeing up Marathon people with Destiny experience is more efficient.
