More than a week has passed since the release of the extraction shooter, but Bungie and Sony still haven't shared sales data. This may mean that Marathon has not yet surpassed the 1 million copies sold mark on consoles and PC.
Another decision by Sony also points to possible problems. The company has canceled panels on the development of Bungie and Marathon at GDC 2026. The reason for the cancellation was not given. The presentations were scheduled for March 13, 2026.
Forbes journalist Paul Tassi stated in a new video that most of Marathon's sales came from Steam. He refers to sources, including those at Sony. According to him, the shooter is selling noticeably worse on consoles, which could be a problem for Sony.
Marathon is still in the top 10 of Steam sales and is currently in tenth place. The game has received very good ratings from users. According to Gamalytic, about 977 thousand copies have been sold on Steam. The project has a strong player base, but is that enough with weak console sales?
