Sony doesn’t have a whole lot of PS5 first-party games due out in 2025, and one of them is already in trouble, according to a new report. Following its admission that Marathon features stolen art, Bungie is reportedly struggling with low employee morale and internal concerns about launching the game in September.
Marathon is among the few PS5 first-party games due out in 2025
Forbes has spoken to sources familiar with goings-on at Bungie, and has been told that the studio is undertaking an extensive audit to remove stolen art from Marathon that — as we reported last week — Bungie blames an ex employee for.
“The vibes have never been worse” at Bungie, it has been said, with sources adding that morale is in “free-fall” mode. There are also concerns about how Marathon was received following its reveal and closed alpha, and with this new plagiarism debacle, devs are concerned about releasing the game in a “now actively hostile environment.”
It doesn’t help that things turned sour at a recent Marathon livestream. What was supposed to be a gameplay showcase ended up turning into an apology delivered by a visibly distraught Joe Cross, who is Marathon’s art director. The livestream’s chat was flooded with comments about plagiarism.
As for a delay, Forbes claims that there’s no internal chatter about a potential delay at Bungie. However, given the state of things, it’s a possibility.
