Marathon-Themed Limited Edition DualSense Controller Unveiled Ahead of The Game's March Launch

Earlier today, a leak that stemmed from the Xbox Store revealed the release date of Marathon. Later in the day, Bungie, the studio behind the game, officially confirmed that the game will release on March 5, 2026, on Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and Steam. But there was one more thing alongside that announcement.

Sony & Bungie wants you to play Marathon with a the game-themed Dual Sense controller

Over on the PlayStation Blog, Sony and Bungie officially unveiled a Marathon Limited Edition DualSense controller. Check out the first look at a new accessory inspired by Bungie’s upcoming sci-fi shooter. Sony and Bungie are launching this controller alongside Marathon on March 5, 2026, and it’s very much rooted in the game’s world.

Here’s a statement from Bungie regarding the design process of the Marathon Limited Edition DualSense controller:

“We were excited for the opportunity to commemorate Marathon’s launch with a limited edition design that would excite our fans and our team, and feel like a true part of the world we’re building—something that could exist naturally alongside other objects in the game and feel functional, grounded, and authentic to the universe of Marathon. We set out to create a design that paid homage to the bold graphic design, vibrant color, and visual art direction of the game, along with its industrial design, architecture, and environmental surfaces and equipment. The result is a design that reflects the world’s balance of form and function, where clean lines, purposeful markings, and vivid accents come together to feel both futuristic and believable.”

Soeaking if accessories, you also have the option to grab the Marathon limited edition Pulse Elite headset. Sadly, it’s limited to the US, and costs $169.99. It works similarly as the controller. Check it out below.
