Bungie's 'Marathon' to Launch at $40 with No Major Reveal Until Spring 2025

Despite development hurdles and internal challenges, Bungie remains committed to a 2025 release for its extraction shooter.

Marathon will launch at a $40 price point, influenced by the success of Helldivers 2 and the failure of The Finals as a free-to-play game.
No significant reveals are planned until Spring 2025, although a brief video may introduce new game director Joe Ziegler and address misconceptions.
Marathon features a hero system akin to Apex Legends, with customizable gear and guns, and scaled-back puzzles and secrets.
The game's art direction remains consistent with the initial reveal, receiving positive feedback from fans.
Bungie faces pressure from Sony to meet the 2025 release deadline, amidst low morale and internal departures within the development team.
