Sony Interactive Entertainment, the owner of Bungie, has high hopes for the shooter Marathon. However, the game is already facing criticism, and users are wondering: will it become the second Concord, one of the biggest failures in the gaming industry?
On Steam, many users are complaining about boring gameplay, weak loot, and one of the worst interfaces in recent years. The problems cited include small and uninteresting maps, and owners of weak PCs note low frame rates. Even DreamcastGuy, one of the biggest PlayStation fans on YouTube with 248,000 subscribers, admitted his disappointment with the gameplay and criticized the terrible menu system. He rated the current gameplay at 7.5/10.
This is not a bad score, but it may not be enough. The extraction-shooter market is saturated, with ARC Raiders remaining the leader, having recently received updates. Bungie and Sony may face a commercial success problem, considering Marathon's price of $40. Everything will become clear on March 5, 2026.
