Is Marathon Crossplay?
Yes, Marathon features full crossplay and cross-save support.
- Platforms: You can play with others across PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC (via Steam).
- Availability: Crossplay is active for both the Server Slam (open beta) starting February 26, 2026, and the full launch on March 5, 2026.
- Account Requirements: Players on PC and Xbox do not need a PlayStation Network (PSN) account to play, though a Bungie.net account is required to enable cross-save.
- Matchmaking: Console players will likely have an option to opt out of matchmaking with PC players to ensure a level playing field between controller and keyboard/mouse users.
If you prefer to focus on playing with friends across platforms and want a steady way to support your progress, some players choose to buy Marathon Credits from SHANNENG as a simple, optional alternative to long farming sessions.
Is Marathon Cross-Save Supported?
