The chief financial officer for Sony Interactive Entertainment has said that Marathon is still expected to arrive during the hardware manufacturer’s current fiscal year, which means it’ll arrive no later than March 2026.
Speaking during the company’s latest financial results, Lin Tao expects a release date for Marathon to be announced by Bungie or PlayStation within “the autumn timeframe.”
We are now fixing the problems. So we believe this launch will happen. And if this launch is canceled, we need to do the revision of the valuation. However, as of now this is not expected.

Marathon was originally set to launch in September 2025 before being pushed to an as-yet undisclosed date, with developer Bungie stating it plans on improving a number of key areas including AI, narrative, and visuals. Speaking back in April on the Friends Per Second Podcast, the game’s director explained why Bungie opted not to make Marathon free-to-play, and instead position it as a premium product.
Marathon sees players working as crews of three as they comb the lost colony on Tau Ceti IV for powerful weapons and equipment, battling against AI security forces, otherworldly foes, and rival Runner teams also competing for loot. However, while death is pretty much a given in this cut-throat world, you’ll return to keep everything you previously scavenged, allowing you to grow in power and fill your vault during matches.
