DeutschBLAST legger frem planene for CS2-kalenderen 2027, med en planlagt investering på 10 millioner dollar
BLAST har lagt planer om å øke investeringene i en verden av Counter-Strike 2 esports, alt som en del av arbeidet med å oppdatere formatene og "for å levere en mer bærekraftig og premium opplevelse for lag, spillere og fans."
Som programdirektør for BLAST Premier, Anne Banschbach, forklarer, er målet å satse ytterligere på LAN-turneringer, å ha en sterkere innvirkning på Valve Ranking System, å fjerne hovedkamper på nettet og å sørge for at de viktigste kampene spilles på store scener rundt om i verden.
For å oppnå dette kan du forvente flere veier inn i BLAST-økosystemet, innføring av akseptavgifter og større investeringer i gjestfrihet for lag og spillere, pluss en forbedret kalender som skal legge til rundt 50 timer med sendinger som fansen kan glede seg over.
Til syvende og sist vil dette gi rundt 3 millioner dollar i premiepenger i løpet av 2027-sesongen, i tillegg til at lag og spillere blir belønnet for sine prestasjoner på hvert arrangement. Det skal gjøre det mer givende og ønskelig for de største lagene rundt om i verden å konkurrere i BLAST-arrangementer.
Ser vi på kalenderen for 2027, inkluderer de planlagte arrangementene og bekreftede stedene for en håndfull følgende :
- BLAST Premier Event 1 - 13. - 24. januar (Schengen)
- BLAST Premier Event 2 - 15. - 28. mars (TBA)
- BLAST Premier Event 3 - 10. - 23. mai (TBA)
- BLAST Premier Event 4 - 30. august - 12. september (TBA)
- BLAST Premier Event 5 - 4. - 17. oktober (Rio de Janeiro, Brasil)
- BLAST Premier Event 6 - 8. - 14. november (TBA)

Marathon launch times and release date
After a less-than-ideal early reception last year, Bungie made the call to indefinitely delay Marathon while it returned to the drawing board somewhat. Now, it's officially back on the menu, and the Marathon launch time is drawing near.
But release is far from the end of Bungie's plans for Marathon, as it unveiled Season 1: Death is the First Step and gave us a look at what's to come later on in the roadmap. Controversially, it's also locked in mandatory server wipes roughly every three months, so don't get too precious about any loot you find at launch.
Below, I'll go over the Marathon launch times in major regions, whether you can preload the game to start looting Tau Ceti from the moment the lights turn green, and the system requirements.
When is the Marathon unlock time?
Marathon releases on Thursday, March 5, at 6 pm UTC, on Steam, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S. This works out as the following times in each region:
- US Pacific: 10 am PST, March 5
- US Eastern: 1 pm EST, March 5
- UK: 6 pm GMT, March 5
- Central Europe: 7 pm CET, March 5
- Australia: 5 am AEDT, March 6
- New Zealand: 7 am NZDT, March 6
This comes just over three days after the end of the Server Slam, where we all had the opportunity to give Bungie's extraction shooter a test run. Bungie has taken a lot of the feedback on board and has even given us some interesting player stats, like how we extracted 145,822 cases of Premium Tick Milk and a whopping 384,866 Drinkable Cheeseburgers, for some reason.
Is there preloading for Marathon?
Yes, you can currently preload Marathon on all platforms if you've pre-ordered the game. Note that on PC, you'll need roughly double the game's overall size to be able to preload and decrypt the files on launch day—if you don't have space, just download it at launch. Marathon's only around 25 GB across all platforms, so it shouldn't take too long to download anyhow.
Marathon system requirements
Here are the minimum and recommended system requirements for Marathon on PC:
