Marathon PS5
Description
Release date: TBA
Marathon for PlayStation 5 marks the return of the legendary Bungie franchise in a completely new form. The creators of the Halo and Destiny series bring a futuristic extraction shooter that combines intense PvP and PvE conflicts, advanced technology, and a dynamic online experience designed for a new generation of players.
The story is set on the mysterious colony of Tau Ceti IV, where players take on the role of Runners – cybernetically enhanced mercenaries who explore an abandoned world in search of valuable resources, information, and technology. Each expedition is a high-risk mission where the goal is to gather loot and extract safely before being eliminated by other players or hostile forces.
Marathon delivers a unique blend of tactical action, fast-paced shooting, and strategic planning. Thanks to Bungie's expertise in crafting FPS games, every weapon provides a precise sense of control, while different Runner classes allow you to create your own playstyle.
A major focus is placed on the multiplayer experience. Players can form teams, complete objectives, capture rare resources, and take part in seasonal events that constantly reshape the game world. The progression system unlocks new gear, upgrades, and special abilities.
Marathon's visual identity sets it apart from the competition. A futuristic aesthetic, vibrant colours, and a high-tech environment create a unique atmosphere that blends science fiction and cyberpunk elements.
Marathon is one of Bungie's most ambitious online projects and potentially a major new multiplayer franchise for PlayStation 5.
