I'm not a Destiny player, but I respect the hell out of the community for creating and growing this event. That said, @GCXEvent is already so much more, and I believe in the coming years will be an important beat on the global gaming calendar for multiple communities, indie devs, game launches, creator b2b, and frankly all my burnt out game industry friends who are looking for a unique vacation getaway in a theme park!

One year after Destiny first dropped, so did we. What started as a gathering place for Guardians became something far greater than any of us expected. GCX was born out of a love for this universe — not just the raids, the lore, or the loot — but the community that formed around all of it. For so many of us, Destiny didn't just give us something to play. It gave us something to build on. It's where countless creators found their voice, where streamers discovered their audience, and where friendships were forged that had nothing to do with light levels and everything to do with what happens when people chase something together. Today, Bungie announced that active development on Destiny 2 is coming to an end. You can read their full statement via the link below. Every end deserves to be honored. And we rarely get the chance to celebrate a life while it still matters. This July, we want to give this community exactly that. GCX cordially invites you to Destiny: A Celebration of Game Life. Join us at Universal Orlando Resort for something we've been quietly hoping we'd never need — and now know we need more than ever. We're planning a dedicated Destiny celebration at Main Stage: an SRL Tournament, a retrospective spanning 12 years of memories, and some very special guests who helped shape what this game and this community became. More details are coming soon, but know this — we're building it for you, the people who were there from the beginning, and for everyone who found their way to this community somewhere along the journey. One last ride, Guardians. We'll see you in Orlando. Tickets below. Rise up...and remember — The GCX Team #GCX2026 #GCX2026ForTheLight

@geoffkeighley I was watching it and caught the reference to your dad at the end, that's really special mate.

For more than 50 years, my Dad dreamed of a day when every frame of a major Hollywood film would be captured with IMAX cameras. Tonight, Christopher Nolan spoke beautifully about his friendship with my Dad - and the new Keighley IMAX camera - on The Late Show w/ Colbert.
