In a stunning display of endurance, Bungie's unfinished, unflattering, and ultimately delayed extraction shooter Marathon finally pokes its head out of the waves after months of looking like a goner, emerging now for a closed playtest.
Before announcing the test – scheduled to take place between October 22 to October 27 – developer Bungie had been strategically silent about Marathon's fate. The developer was accused for at least the fourth time in its history of plagiarizing another artist's work, and then it admitted to mistakenly doing so in Marathon, reportedly destroying company morale about the revival of its 1994 shooter of the same name.
