Description
Infil into the dark sci-fi world of Tau Ceti IV: A derelict colony rife with rival Runners, hostile UESC security forces, and unpredictable environments. As you scavenge its zones for valuables with a crew or alone, tense moments of exploration break into fast-paced PvP combat where gunplay is responsive, supplies are finite, and preparation is rewarded.
Exfil to advance your seasonal power, earn cosmetics for your achievements, and assemble stronger builds with your stolen loot. Then put your gear back on the line to seek even greater fortunes in your next run.
A GRAVEYARD OF POSSIBILITIES
Trespass across deserted research facilities, rugged landscapes, and security outposts holding the remnants of a vanished expedition, yours to salvage. Tau Ceti threatens death at every turn with unique enemies, dynamic events, and environmental hazards. Each zone escalates in difficulty, preparing you for the UESC Marathon locked in the heavens.
POWERFUL. CONFIGURABLE. EXPENDABLE.
Six equippable Runner shells offer diverse playstyle foundations to build upon, like Destroyer, Recon, and Thief. Scavenge an arsenal of moddable weapons, body implants, and core system upgrades to craft countless builds. Strategize as a crew each run to form comps that maximize your combined strengths, shaping the way you approach fights and objectives.
ENEMIES EVERYWHERE
Face the unknown as a crew of two or three, or alone in solo lobbies. Or sneak into in-progress crew lobbies as Rook, a lone scavenger with no starting gear and nothing to lose. Forge uneasy alliances with rival Runners in prox chat to defeat mutual foes, but remember your new allies might revert to enemies just as quickly. Be merciless in combat: A lone survivor can reboot their crew, even from death.
Later in Season 1, compete in Rated mode to measure your skill and build a name for yourself.
INFLUENCE IS POWER
Liaise with six competing factions, each offering lucrative incentives to advance their foothold on Tau Ceti. Completing faction contracts grows your baseline power via season-long unlocks like Runner shell upgrades, stronger starting loadouts, expanded vault space, and specialized wares on offer for spare loot.
DEFRAGMENT THE TRUTH
No one knows what happened a century ago when the Marathon expedition went dark. As a trespasser into UESC territory, you are uniquely positioned to piece the story together. Unearth the skeletons of Tau Ceti’s past as you run deeper into the colony.
DEATH HANGS ABOVE
Once the way into orbit unlocks, bring your endgame build to Cryo Archive, the first floor of the UESC Marathon. Solve raid-like security measures to unseal frozen vaults and pillage the artifacts within. Every cramped corridor forces you into conflict with fully-geared enemy crews racing for the same prize. Breach the seventh vault to challenge an entity even the UESC fears.

About Marathon
Developed and published by Bungie and released on March 5, 2026, Marathon is the studio's long-awaited return to the franchise that started their legacy in the 1990s, completely reimagined as a team-based PvPvE extraction shooter. Set on the ruins of the colony world Tau Ceti IV, players choose from a roster of cybernetic mercenaries called Runners, each with distinct abilities, and drop into missions with a squad of three to scavenge weapons, implants, and gear from rival teams and AI-controlled security forces.
The extraction loop is the heart of the game — survive the match and keep your loot, or die and lose everything you brought in. Every run is a calculated risk, and the tension of deciding when to push deeper into the map and when to extract with what you have is what separates experienced players from newcomers. Five unique maps range from accessible beginner zones to high-stakes ranked play, each with different threat profiles and extraction points that reward map knowledge and squad coordination.
Customisation runs deep — over time players build and refine their Runner through looted weapons, implants, and gear that carry across sessions, creating a persistent progression layer within the extraction framework. Bungie's two decades of first-person shooter expertise are evident in the gunplay, which is precise, responsive, and immediately distinguishable from every competitor in the extraction shooter genre. Marathon launched to a Very Positive rating on Steam with 89% positive reviews and a Metacritic score of 81, with critics highlighting its bold visual direction and deeply satisfying core gunplay as standout qualities.

Marathon is designed around squads of three players. While you can queue solo and be matched with other players, the game is fundamentally built around coordinated team play. Going in without communication puts you at a significant disadvantage against organised squads. If you plan to play regularly, having at least one or two regular teammates is strongly recommended.
