Bungie has officially locked in the Marathon release date. The extraction shooter Marathon launches on March 5, 2026, coming to Steam, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S. Alongside the announcement, Bungie revealed a new gameplay trailer and opened pre-orders across all platforms. Lear more about the game in our Marathon Overview!
The new trailer is narrated by Gantry, the faction agent for MIDA, and gives a clearer look at how factions shape Marathon’s world. Through priority contracts, players uncover rivalries, motivations, and fragments of Tau Ceti’s fate. Storytelling ties directly into gameplay, with Codex entries unlocking as you complete contracts, find logs, and explore abandoned colony systems.
