Bungie is best-known for its work on Halo and Destiny, but before it made its mark on those franchises, the studio was building the grand sci-fi saga of Marathon. Decades later, Marathon is making its grand return as a multiplayer-focused extraction shooter that aims to combine Bungie’s signature gunplay with a vibrant art direction.
Ahead of its launch in March, we’ve gathered up all the pertinent information on the game, and you can read up to see how Marathon is shaping up.
When will Marathon be released?

Marathon will launch on March 5, 2026. The game was originally scheduled to be released on September 23, 2025, but was delayed so Bungie could spend more time fine-tuning the game and addressing feedback from players who participated in early alpha versions.
