Bungie has officially revealed that Marathon, its sci-fi PvP extraction shooter and spiritual reboot of the 1994 classic, will launch on September 23, 2025 for Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and PC. The announcement came alongside the game’s first full gameplay trailer, showcasing fast-paced, high-tech action in a visually arresting sci-fi world.
Described as a “massive ghost ship” orbiting the planet Tau Ceti IV, the game’s setting is rich with mystery. Players assume the role of Runners, cybernetic mercenaries who venture into the abandoned colony to retrieve valuable artifacts and survive deadly encounters against other teams.
Key Features Revealed:
PvP Extraction Gameplay: Think Escape from Tarkov meets Destiny with faster movement and stylized visuals.
Crossplay and Cross-Save: Fully supported across all platforms at launch.
Alpha Access Now Live: Players can register for a closed alpha via Bungie’s Discord, available on PS5, Xbox, and PC.
Emergent Storytelling: Bungie hints at player-driven narratives and evolving world states.
As a spiritual successor to the original Marathon trilogy, this reboot embraces its roots while modernizing its design for today’s extraction shooter landscape. With Bungie now under Sony’s wing, but the game launching day one on Xbox, Marathon also serves as a key example of multiplatform strategy in the current-gen console wars.
