Bungie takes its second shot at revealing Marathon: $40 price tag, proximity chat, solo queue, and March release confirmed

Marathon screen.

I had my doubts when Sony said in November that Bungie's troubled extraction shooter Marathon would be out in March 2026 come hell or high water, but it seems determined to prove me wrong. In a big update released today, Bungie not only recommitted to the March '26 launch but also revealed details on pricing, 'Reward Passes,' and the many ways the game has changed since Arc Raiders came along and completely stole its thunder.

An exact date still hasn't been announced, but Marathon is "targeting" a price of $40/£40/€35, putting it in line with big-time online shooters Helldivers 2 and Arc Raiders. "Purchasing Marathon will give you full access to the game, including a roadmap of free gameplay updates as the year progresses," Bungie said. "This will include new maps, new Runner shells, events, and more, starting with the exploration of UESC Marathon's Cryo Archive in Season 1."
