Bungie has officially announced that Marathon, its upcoming team-based extraction shooter, will launch on March 5, 2026, on PS5, Xbox Series, and PC via Steam, marking Bungie’s first major non-Destiny release in over a decade.

Marathon will support full cross-play and cross-save across all platforms.

Welcome to Tau Ceti IV

In Marathon, players take on the role of “Runners”—cybernetic mercenaries scavenging the lost colony of Tau Ceti IV. Operating in crews of three, you’ll battle rival teams and hostile security forces to secure weapons, implants, and gear.

Bungie emphasizes that “every match is a chance to experiment,” with a heavy focus on buildcrafting and customization. The game promises the studio’s signature “best-in-class” gunplay, aiming to be accessible for newcomers while offering high-stakes Ranked modes for competitive players.
