Bungie launches their Bungie App today and also stated it was the start of a bigger project as the studio continues its transfer away from the Halo series with Microsoft and 343 Studios to their new project with Activision.

Even though neither Bungie nor Activision revealed anything about the current project called Destiny at E3, Bungie did confirm the game is still on schedule and in development.

Bungie's app as of now only keeps track of stats in Halo Reach but the studio revealed it will be expanded more over time and is part of their current attempt to expand into the mobile market for both games and apps. Bungie plans to treat their new app the same as they do with their Bungie.Net website with constant news, updates, and special stuff every once in a while.

Bungie's other current project called Bungie Aerospace is expected to be revealed in detail during this year's Bungie Day festival during June 23 to July 7.
