Marathon Release Date Confirmed, Pre-Orders Now Live
"Marathon, the long-awaited extraction shooter from Bungie, will release on March 5, 2026. The Sony-owned studio announced the launch date and confirmed pre-order details for the multiplayer title on Monday. Marathon, which had been delayed indefinitely from its initial September 2025 release date, can now be pre-purchased across Steam, PS5, and Xbox Series S/X. Bungie also premiered a new gameplay trailer for Marathon alongside the announcement, where they introduced a new character, Gantry, an agent for the MIDA faction in the game."
"Marathon is a PvPvE sci-fi extraction shooter set on the planet Tau Ceti IV, where "Runners" compete to gather valuable loot. Players can also complete contracts for each of the game's six factions and find lost audio and text logs during their runs to slowly unlock the story of Marathon. The focus is, of course, on the first-person shooting gameplay, with players competing to survive in a hostile environment against AI-controlled enemies and other players looking for loot."
"As part of the latest announcement, Bungie also confirmed the English-language voice cast of Marathon. The game will feature some of the most popular voices in video games, including Roger Clark (Red Dead Redemption 2), Jennifer English (Clair Obscur: Expedition 33), Neil Newbon (Baldur's Gate 3), Ben Starr (Final Fantasy XVI), and Elias Toufexis (Deus Ex: Human Revolution). Marathon will also feature fully-localised dialogue for all supported languages, Bungie confirmed."
