Weird thing to focus on, but let's see...
San Diego Studio makes a best seller in USA each year.
Bungie still has production autonomy and I assume that will keep going if Marathon is a success, otherwise they will be treated like another Sony studio and have their publishing department shuttered.
Haven is the most likely one here, but hard to say when we don't know much about their game (though I personally don't like the look of it).
San Diego Studio at the very least makes that last option a very dumb thing to vote.

Haven.
I think the rest of their studios are somewhat safe, maybe Bungie could also be in danger.

I'd think even if Marathon fails, Destiny does well enough to keep Bungie safe. It'll never be a money printer like Fortnite etc., but seems like they have a successful model of paid expansions selling well, on top of cosmetic purchase options etc.

Bungie could spin out and become private again. Probably San Diego, I have never heard of them.

Japan and Liverpool studios look like they won't survive. That Evolution Studios not looking good either. Psygnosis and 989? Pfftttt done for.

San Diego is not closing any time soon since they're probably one of the most profitable studios under SIE. As long as they have the MLB license they'll continue doing their thing aka putting out yearly MLB The Show games.

I think Bend, Mediamolecule, Haven and Firesprite are out of their next games don't deliver. Housemarque will get a management buyout.
