Bungie Is Bringing Back Marathon on PS5, PC, Xbox Series X|S | Push Square
Bungie released Marathon in 1994, and now the name is coming back on PS5 as a «sci-fi PvP extraction shooter». Check out the trailer to get a taste of what to expect. Also coming to PC, it'll feature full cross-play and cross-save. Release is said to still be far away, but the next time we see it, gameplay will be attached.
The game is coming to PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. There's no PlayStation exclusivity despite Bungie now being owned by Sony.
Editorial lead Brian Ekberg said: «Marathon is designed from the start as a PvP-focused game and won’t have a single-player campaign. Instead, with the PvP experience as our foundation, we’re creating opportunities for player-driven stories to unfold, stories that are integrated with the overarching game narrative. We’re building a world full of persistent, evolving zones, where players create their own journey with every run they take. That might mean an unforgettable firefight against another crew vying for the same loot, or a last-second extraction while beset on all sides.»
Liam grew up with a PlayStation controller in his hands and a love for Metal Gear Solid. Nowadays, he can be found playing the latest and greatest PS5 games as well as supporting Derby County. That last detail is his downfall.
They should have called the new one Snickers
I kid you not, when this trailer started there was something about it that I thought “surely this can not be Marathon…”
Disappointed it’s not closer to the alien shooter from the old days, but I’m sure Bungie will make it fun still.
Why even bother with the marathon name? I’m sure all 11 people who played it on the Mac in 1994 are really excited
