Why Marathon Matters for Bungie
Marathon is a major release for Bungie, marking the studio’s first new game release since its $3.6 billion acquisition by Sony Interactive Entertainment. That investment has come under scrutiny as Destiny 2’s player numbers declined following The Final Shape expansion.
Marathon’s performance will likely influence how much creative and operational freedom Bungie retains moving forward. After years under Sony’s umbrella, the publisher will be looking for signs of return on investment, especially as it continues to shape the future of the PlayStation ecosystem.

Octopath Traveler 0 is a mixed bag, with some genuinely likeable characters and engaging story arcs, alongside others that fall flat. You then have a final act that had me banging my head against the wall. Still, its satisfying combat system, strong party synergy, and striking visual style make it an enjoyable JRPG overall.
