Sony said earlier this month that Marathon, Bungie's super-sexy but deeply troubled extraction shooter, is coming out one way or the other in March 2026, and it'll clean up the mess—that is, "make corrections"—as needed once it's out the door. But it's still making corrections before that, too, and interested run-and-gunners will have a chance to check out the latest updates in another round of playtesting set for December.
Unlike the recently concluded October playtest, which was open to players in North America and Europe, this one in December will be accessible only to those in North America. Otherwise, it looks to be pretty much the same deal, including that it's invite-only, invitations cannot be shared, and the whole thing is "strictly under an NDA," meaning you can't stream it or "share your playtest experience publicly."
