Sony says Bungie's "independence is getting lighter" as it aims to launch the Destiny 2 studio's troubled new FPS Marathon before April 2026: "We are now fixing the problems, so we believe this launch will happen"

Bungie's delayed FPS game Marathon still doesn't have a release date, but Sony expects that it'll probably launch at some point before April 2026, although that's "not a commitment."

Marathon got hit with an indefinite delay back in June, with Bungie putting its focus on "making combat more tense and strategic," as well as adding "more challenging and engaging AI encounters," in addition to "more rewarding runs," and more. This also followed public controversy when it was revealed that the game's alpha included unauthorized designs from an artist – Bungie said at the time that it was "conducting a thorough review of our in-game assets" to make sure nothing like that could happen again.
