Revealing the Marathon Limited Edition DualSense controller
A first look at the new Marathon-inspired limited edition DualSense controller has been revealed, designed in close collaboration with Bungie, who shared insights about the design process:
“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 and 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.”

The controller launches starting on March 6, 2026 and will be available in limited quantities for SGD 119 / MYR 419 / THB 2,890 / IDR 1,549,000 / PHP 4,890 / VND 2,399,000.** Pre-orders will begin on January 29, 2026 at participating retailers.
