Bungie seeks subletters for 210,984 sq ft Bellevue HQ after 2021 expansion
GG Brief Editorial Desk · AI-assisted, source attributed
Bungie is offering subleases for its 210,984 square foot Bellevue, Washington headquarters and lists the campus as a turnkey production facility with a motion-capture studio, gym (including a rock-climbing wall), cafe, catering space and private patio. The studio more than doubled its office space in 2021, expanding from about 84,000 to 210,984 sq ft, but adopted a digital-first remote-work policy for most roles in 2022 and is now exploring sublease options while maintaining some physical presence. The move follows several years of layoffs, cancelled projects and troubled launches, leaving a large, costly expansion underutilized. This could free up significant commercial office space in Bellevue and reduce Bungie’s real estate costs.
- Campus size is 210,984 square feet after a 2021 expansion that grew Bungie’s offices from roughly 84,000 sq ft to just under 211,000 sq ft.
- Bungie listed the headquarters in a 10-page leasing brochure as a turn‑key production facility with a lobby, gym and exercise facilities (including a rock-climbing wall), motion-capture studio, cafe, catering space and private exterior patio.
- The studio adopted a digital-first remote work policy for most roles in 2022 and confirmed it is exploring options to sublease the Bellevue campus while continuing to maintain a physical office presence.
- Since the expansion, Bungie has gone through layoffs, project cancellations and troubled product launches, creating the operational mismatch that prompted the sublease effort.
