Bungie finally shows off post-Destiny extraction shooter Marathon, which will launch in September with signups open for a playtest this month

A Runner from the next Marathon game reveal looking at the screen, her eyes are covered, possibly replaced by biosynthetics .

After all the cryptic teasers, brutal layoffs, and a thrilling, somewhat messy, not-quite conclusion to the story of Destiny 2, Bungie today finally laid its cards on the table with a livestream gameplay reveal of Marathon, its upcoming extraction shooter that continues the story of its mind-bending Doom-era series of Mac FPSes.

For the full lowdown on this formerly-mysterious project, PC Gamer brand director and Destiny sicko emeritus Tim Clark actually played the damn thing. But if you want the CliffsNotes, the game launches September 23—the same day as Borderlands 4, which aught to be interesting—with signups open now for a closed alpha on April 23 via the official Marathon Discord—as a note, this first test is for North America only, and you have to be over 18 years of age.
