Guardians rejoice, as a ton of Destiny 2 news about ways Bungie intends to improve the game has been announced. Among the reveals was news that Destiny 2 will end up supporting cross-save functionality across all platforms, including the PS4, on September 17th, 2019. This comes as a pleasant surprise, as some might have wondered if Sony would agree to allowing cross-save on its platform. But according to a Kotaku report, not only has Sony agreed to it, but it seems like it was a very last-minute decision.
According to the report, sources told Jason Schreier of Kotaku that they didn?t think Destiny 2 PS4 cross-saves would happen. Schreier had this to say about the lead-up to the decision by Sony:

PB = PB || {};
PB.gptStandAlone = PB.gptStandAlone || {}; PB.gptAutoRefresh = PB.gptAutoRefresh || {'gptAds':[], 'gptStandAlone':[]};

googletag.cmd.push(function() {
var standAloneSizeMapping = googletag.sizeMapping().addSize([0, 0], []).addSize([750, 0], [[300, 250]]).addSize([980, 0], [[300, 250]]).build(); PB.gptStandAlone['ros_300x250_p_slot4_1559916277'] = googletag.defineSlot('/4403/cr/playstationlifestyle/ros', [[300, 250]], 'ros_300x250_p_slot4_1559916277')
.defineSizeMapping(standAloneSizeMapping) .addService(googletag.pubads())
