First Look at Marathon Gameplay Reveals Sci-Fi Extraction Shooter Details
Bungie has unveiled the first glimpse of Marathon’s gameplay, showcasing a polished and tech-inspired aesthetic consistent with its initial PlayStation teaser. During a recent presentation highlighting the sci-fi extraction shooter, Bungie detailed the mechanics of its PvPvE multiplayer matches and the overarching narrative that propels characters through a dark yet engaging looter shooter experience. This cycle revolves around corporate deals, a puzzling planet, and the declining humanity of mercenaries tasked with exploiting it.
PvPvE Multiplayer and Setting
Scheduled for launch on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC on September 23, with complete cross-play compatibility, Marathon positions teams of up to three players against each other. Their mission: to explore a deserted space colony and successfully extract valuable equipment. Bungie aims to deliver more than just another entry in the competitive multiplayer shooter scene. Drawing inspiration from Bungie’s 1990s space shooter trilogy of the same title, Marathon is poised to present an expansive sci-fi narrative that extends beyond individual match experiences.
