The future of Marathon includes a fungus-filled Perimeter, a social hub, and a shift "beyond extraction"
Bungie is shifting the future of Marathon away from a purely extraction-based shooter towards a broader live service model. Upcoming updates will include new PvE modes, a Team Deathmatch PvP option, a visually overhauled Perimeter zone with a fungus infection, and a new social hub. The developer aims to broaden the game's appeal beyond its initial cutthroat PvPvE focus, a move that is met with some frustration given the current market for live service games.
