Bungie‘s original Marathon series is making its way to Steam, with the first game in the trilogy now available for free. The classic sci-fi FPS Marathon, originally developed by Bungie for Mac, has been revived for modern hardware by the fan community through the Aleph One project.

Additionally, Bungie has announced a reboot of the franchise with a new game titled Marathon, which is described as a sci-fi PvP extraction shooter. The game is set to be released for PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC, although a specific launch window has not been confirmed. Following an internal delay, the game is reportedly aiming for a 2025 release.

Today, we're thrilled to announce that the Aleph One community is bringing the original 1994-1996 Marathon Trilogy to Steam starting with Marathon 1.

Thank you to the Marathon community for your support over the years. We couldn't do it without you.

I’m Yousiff Taqi, born in ’87, and I’ve been a huge fan of retro games for as long as I can remember. My favorites are RPGs, Platformers, and Action Adventure. I’ve been interested in computers ever since I was young, which is why I pursued a Bachelor’s in Computer Engineering from Purdue University. Now, armed with my passion for both retro gaming and computer engineering, I’m excited to embark on new adventures in the world of technology, where I hope to merge my interests and make meaningful contributions. https://www.instagram.com/Aeon https://twitter.com/FencerDarkwind
