Bungie Sets Marathon Launch for March 2026 at $39.99

A new ViDoc presents a trust‑minded pivot with paid entry, free updates, non‑expiring passes, and no pay‑to‑win.

Overview

  • Marathon is slated for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC (Steam) with full cross‑play and cross‑save support.
  • The 22–23 minute ViDoc details proximity chat, a solo queue, the Rook scavenger shell, improved visual fidelity, darker tone, and deeper environmental storytelling.
  • Purchasing the game grants full access with free gameplay updates in the first year, including new maps, Runner shells, and live events.
  • Reward Passes will not expire, prior passes will remain purchasable, and Bungie states survival outcomes will not be influenced by spending.
  • Season 1 opens the UESC Marathon’s Cryo Archive, with the exact March date and a fuller seasonal roadmap to be shared in January after a June delay and a plagiarism issue the affected artist says is resolved.
