This article is about the division of Bungie which made Oni. For the company proper, see Wikipedia's article.
For a complete list of the specific names behind Oni, see the Credits page.


Bungie West refers to the West Coast studio, based in San Jose, California (as opposed to the "East Coast" studio, namely, Bungie HQ in Chicago, Illinois). Its first and last released project was Oni. The studio folded when Bungie joined Microsoft; some staff moved to Bungie's new location in Microsoft's office complex in Redmond, Washington, while some employees went to other studios, or formed their own, such as Oni's Design Lead Hardy LeBel, who formed Tyrant Studios. (Bungie is now in Kirkland, Washington since the separation from MS in 2007, and eight staffers from Oni still work there; see Oni, footnote 5, for the list of those names).

You can see a tour of Bungie West back in its short-lived glory days in this tour video from 2000.
