Marathon‘s release date has seemingly been confirmed thanks to a leaked trailer shared early via the Xbox Community page. While the date has not been officially confirmed by Bungie yet, the leaked trailer states a worldwide release date of March 5, 2026, and suggests pre-orders will open soon.
It is understood that the trailer was playable from Marathon’s store page on Xbox consoles, allowing players to add it to their dashboard and watch the trailer early.
While this may seem like another early leak, the nature of it makes it seem like the trailer was posted early on Xbox’s end unintentionally rather than leaked by Bungie on purpose.
Marathon Launch Date and Trailer Leak Explained
Leaked trailer confirms March 5 as Marathon‘s release date. Now that the trailer has been leaked we expect Bungie to officially announce it at any moment, which could coincide with pre-orders launching on all storefronts.
The trailer also shows a quick look at what the game’s Deluxe Edition will offer players. While we haven’t seen the official list of items just yet, we now know that Marathon will offer exclusive weapon skins for the Overrun assault rifle and Misriah 2442 pump shotgun. You can watch the trailer HERE.
Marathon Deluxe Edition Content
The Deluxe Edition also seems to be granting players the Midnight Decay bundle. This bundle grants players alternate skins for three Runner Shells; Destroyer, Assassin, and Vandal.
Player customisation and identity will seem to play a big role in Marathon as it will likely be a big part of the live-service aspects down the line.
It’s also very likely the Deluxe Edition will include some sort of access bonus, whether that be into an open beta or future tests. We do not know if Bungie plans to hold an open beta for Marathon yet, so this will have to remain unchecked until more information is released.
