Marathon review in progress – extracting the fun
Bungie's reboot of Marathon is a challenging extraction shooter that requires perseverance to appreciate its potential, despite a troubled development. While the game features a striking art style and the studio's signature gunplay, its steep learning curve, convoluted menus, and unforgiving gameplay can be frustrating for newcomers. Early impressions suggest that Marathon may eventually offer compelling high-stakes gameplay, but it faces stiff competition from similar titles.
