"We don't expect Marathon to become Destiny 3": Bungie reckons "if you are a Destiny player who's not really interested in any PvP," Marathon is "probably not the game for you"

Bungie's upcoming sci-fi extraction shooter Marathon isn't aiming to replace Destiny, and in fact, its director is very open about the fact that Destiny players who are only into PvE experiences might not vibe with the new game at all.

In an interview with GamesRadar+, Marathon game director Joe Ziegler talks about the process of onboarding players from Destiny, noting that "there's some differences" between the two, with "some barriers" that the devs "can help smooth out." However, "I think there's other things that maybe we can't," he adds, "just to be 100% honest."
