Sony’s CFO, Lin Tao, has provided an optimistic outlook on the upcoming release of Marathon, stating that the game is expected to launch by the end of March 2026. This announcement follows a delay that was initially communicated in June, emphasizing the company’s commitment to refining the game based on community feedback. While no official date has been set, the development team is actively working on modifications to ensure a successful launch.

Sony’s commitment to the future of gaming is evident as they explore “new and enhanced” ways for players to engage with their content. During a recent business segment meeting, Hideaki Nishino, the new president and CEO of Sony Interactive Entertainment, emphasized that while cloud gaming is a viable option, the demand for local execution remains strong. This insight highlights the ongoing importance of traditional gaming experiences, even as technology evolves.
