During its recent livestream, Bungie unveiled a cinematic short movie for their revamped franchise, Marathon, which is set to debut in September. This film was directed by Alberto Mielgo, an Academy Award winner known for The Windshield Wiper and a significant artist on Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse. The movie serves as both a visual masterpiece and a haunting depiction of the game’s bleak future landscape.
This short film powerfully portrays the intense, high-stakes environment of Marathon, a world where runners face brutal consequences in their missions. The visuals, which are both stylish and evocative, convey the dangerous, existential nature of each mission. Unlike many cinematic shorts that simply create excitement, Mielgo’s work goes beyond mere spectacle; it lays the groundwork for a richly textured universe. The animation, sound design, and overall tone all suggest the dark, unsettling world that Bungie is developing.
The game “Marathon” is confirmed by Bungie to not be free-to-play, instead it will debut as a premium title, though not at its full price. At this time, the exact pricing remains undisclosed. However, the studio has already hinted at seasonal storytelling, ranked play, and community events being part of the game’s live-service plan.
The marathon game won’t come with the standard price tag; instead, it will be a high-end or premium release. More information about it will be unveiled this coming summer.
