Team-Based Extraction Shooter Marathon Launching September 23

Players will be able to scavenge the lost colony of Tau Ceti IV in Bungie’s new team-based FPS extraction shooter Marathon when it launches for PC and consoles September 23.

In this title, players will be able to choose from cybernetic mercenaries (dubbed “Runners”) that each have their own unique abilities. One will also set out to battle rival teams and security forces for weapons and upgrades as players fill their vault, take on high-stakes challenges, and unravel the colony’s mysteries.

Marathon will also pay host to an all-star list of talent – see some of the confirmed stars below::

Alberto Mielgo said the following:

“When I first read about Marathon’s universe and characters, I found everything strangely poetic and mysterious.

The concepts of futility and endurance immediately came to mind, and I felt an urgent need to write about it. Seeing the game team’s super bold and vibrant artwork created an instant connection.

It’s all deeply inspiring and thought-provoking.”
