Bungie pledges longevity for Marathon despite soft PS5 sales

Marathon has sold roughly 1.2 million copies across Steam/PC, with about 217,000 on PS5 (roughly 19%), a performance viewed as soft for a high-budget live-service shooter. Bungie responded by affirming the game’s long-term commitment and ongoing improvements, though Sony ultimately holds the final say on continued support. The title has earned solid reviews and maintains a small, dedicated audience, but questions remain about its ability to recoup development costs and scale beyond its niche, leaving its long-term fate uncertain as updates continue.
