Marathon players are closer than ever to unlocking the game's hidden fourth map, Cryo Archive, if a mysterious in-game message is anything to go by. Cryo Archive appeared in Marathon's zone selection menu yesterday (March 17), and while it remains locked as the community continues to solve a cryptic Destiny-style ARG puzzle, Bungie has now provided the clearest instructions to date for getting inside, along with other Marathon Cryo Archive requirements.
A mailbox message sent today (March 18) from 'Cryo.Archive_Admin' calls for players to destroy UESC forces, which reads: "uesc security deployed … lethal force authorized against all trespassers … uesc security lockdown across all zones … mitigation: mass elimination of uesc security units … their death machines march on your synthetic bones … return the favor … destroy them … all of them … thank you".
