New hints about the next project from Metroid Prime and Donkey Kong Country developer.
Warner Bros. Games has set a new leadership team and restructured around Harry Potter, "Game of Thrones," "Mortal Kombat" and the DC Universe IPs.
Shift Up once again proves that they appreciate their team, as they have just rewarded their developers with new Nintendo Switch 2s to celebrate the Stellar Blade sales reaching 3 million.
Marathon was slated to launch on Sept. 23, 2025 across Xbox, PC, and PlayStation, but Bungie will share the new release date in the fall.
It will lessen though and possibly make all the difference if it launches in a state that rectified a lot of the issues people had with it. A LOT of ifs of course.
If you really gotta play ... play the better extraction shooter this year : ARC Raiders
They can't cancel it until a themed controller has been released first... like concord.
If they were absolutely certain about the quality of Marathon, then they had not delayed it just now.
So they've basically just confirmed what everyone, well, a lot of people saw: Marathon is not ready yet, still no soul to be seen.
"Doubling down on the Marathon Universe"
They're doubling down on soul, thank goodness this feedback illuminated that for them...
and N4G was littered with comments like : Marathon looks really good, maybe you're a hater and the likes blah blah ... especially under articles which compared it with Arc Raiders ....
Retro might be the most elusive game studio in gaming history. They should open Retro Paisley Park...lol
I can't wait to see what they are working on for the Switch.
They did a pretty good job of none-linear storytelling with the Chozo Lore scans in the Prime series, so that gives me some hope that they'll have something really outstanding to show off in their next project.^_^
Oh nelly, I think they could show it off tomorrow.
It's easier to break into Fort Knox than to get leaked info from Retro
