Bungie is finally opening up about Marathon, its shiny new extraction shooter that's been under wraps since 2023. This is the legendary FPS studio's first new game in eight years, its first non-Destiny project since the Halo days, and a reimagining of a series that's laid dormant since the '90s, so the collective hobby is keen to know what sort of spin the Destiny folks can put on a relatively new flavour of PvP known for its loot lust and high stakes.
Today's big reveal stream made one thing clear: Marathon will have all the hallmarks of Escape From Tarkov: A blocky inventory, faction quests, three-person squads, customizable guns, and a huge emphasis on money. Everything in your inventory has a sell price, and what you choose to extract from a map will be informed by big ol' dollar signs. Or in the game's case: credits.
