![Marathon | Ultimate Overview, Gameplay, Hands-On Impressions โช๏ธTeam based extraction shooter set on Tau Ceti IV, scavenge remains of a lost colony for glory and fortune โช๏ธLaunch: Coming to PS5, Xbox and PC on September 23 โช๏ธWill be a "premium" product, meaning not F2P โช๏ธ"Weapons and movement feels crisp, fluid, and incredibly satisfying in that rarified way that few studios can achieve" โช๏ธ3 maps, 6 runner classes at launch, more to follow post-launch โช๏ธPlans to support the game with new maps, weapons, characters, and more as it goes on โช๏ธRanked play, end game challenges, seasonal storytelling, secrets to discover, community events all in Season One with more content coming โช๏ธYou play as a "runner", cybernetic mercenary who's given up their human form for a bio-synthetic shell with unique abilities and stats โช๏ธRunner Types: "Locus" is a soldier class for pushing forward, can use a shield, "Void" is stealth, sneak by undetected, use smoke grenades, "Blackbird" is reconnaissance based, find players, positioning, and more โช๏ธUncover secrets hidden in the wake of the original Marathon trilogy's events - how and where this overlaps or clashes with the original games "is a story that will unfold over time" โช๏ธObjective is to get in, get as much loot as you can, and get out alive โช๏ธIf you die, your gear and loot will be up for grabs. Survive and you can take your gear with you on future runs as you grow in power and fill your vault โช๏ธFight in a crew of up to 3 players, various map sizes up to 18 players โช๏ธPvP + PvE, battle other players, security forces, and "otherworldly threats" โช๏ธContextual pings, shared objectives, down-but-not-out mechanics โช๏ธEnvironments are filled with weapons, materials, items, resources, cores, keys, backpacks, secrets etc to find You can find things like backpacks that expand your inventory, powerful and unique weapons, consumables to heal yourself, โช๏ธSelect your runner, strategically build your loadouts pre-match โช๏ธFactions in the game can sponsor you and your loadout โช๏ธYou have the freedom to opt out of crew fill and take all the glory for yourself as a solo runner โช๏ธ"This is probably the best-looking, best-feeling extraction shooter ever made", not easy for newcomers to the genre, can be tough to get into, but one previewer was "reluctant to put Marathon down. This is a good sign โ the best thing I can say after any preview is that I want more โ but big questions remain" โช๏ธNo two matches ever play out the same, dynamic events, variable weather, unpredictable players etc โช๏ธCustomization: Each Runner "brings their own flair", but serve as foundations to customize your playstyle - collect implants and equipment to augment your Runner, like stacking implants/upgrades to reduce heat build-up to allow you to keep running, jumping, sliding longer โช๏ธContracts: "Ingenious" incentives, finish contracts you accept for permanent upgrades to your stats, add precious items like grenades, shields, inventory-expanding backpacks, etc to your market. The bigger your market, the better your minimum loadout becomes โช๏ธContracts provide "valuable direction", bring welcome diversity and add a "precious hit of semi-permanent progression" โช๏ธPrestige Cores: Rare items that can "really push the boundaries" (ex: Glitch has an upgrade that turns double jump into triple jump for more manueverability) โช๏ธAnother rare item is a backpack that turns you invisible while interacting with containers (very useful when everyone on the map is hunting you) โช๏ธEach match "feels like the most important one ever", high stakes, "surprisingly challenging AI enemies" that were "much, much better at surrounding and overwhelming players than the vast majority of AI enemies found in other games" โช๏ธHaving a balanced crew helps in exploring the "dark and forgotten places" in maps - filled with deadly creatures like a species of giant ticks who swarm you frantically โช๏ธBattles can become frantic as you encounter other crews, stalk them across the map, encounter AI enemies to fend off when others come to claim your loot (one preview battle turned into a 9 player free-for-all) โช๏ธDownside could be the reward system where skilled players enter fresh matches with high level gear that outmatches less skilled players, though Bungie says it has gone out of its way to try and make it where a poorly equipped squad can still stand a chance if they play well โช๏ธEven if you die, you can can still get upgrades, improve your reputation with factions, advance in perk trees, etc by completing various quests, looting chests, or fulfilling specific objectives which unlock new bits of story and can grant perks like buying slightly better gear from vendors โช๏ธ"The world Bungie has built is every bit as beautiful as it is creepy and dystopian, and there are moments where they satisfyingly hint at the events of the Marathon trilogy from the โ90s", though "what little I saw did only slightly more than pay lip service to the world" โช๏ธUses the seasonal reset model like in Diablo 4, where players are stripped of their loot and progress at the end of each season to mix things up with new content and new meta โช๏ธGame is designed to get you killed, Bungie expects average exfiltration rates to be comfortably below 50% โช๏ธ"You will lose a lot, and losing hurts a lot[...]Extracts are snapshots of this unpredictability. That white-knuckle countdown may become a gut-punch defeat, an unforgettable clutch, a desperate last-second dive into the portal as your downed allies watch in envy and horror (couldn't be me), or an unnerving anticlimax. It's not always a pleasant one, but it is a strong emotional hook" โช๏ธSome previewers worried about variety, weren't impressed with the objectives in the alpha, like hunting computer monitors on the map, sprinting over, marking dropships, sprinting over, and repeating, though random events help spice things up โช๏ธNot a 20-map game says Bungie, map design "does have that sticky battle royale quality of generating memories", though still worried 3-4 medium sized maps might not be enough โช๏ธBungie's "verbiage" on updates sounds like possibly 1 new map a year + refreshing existing ones in between, which could work in its favor pushing players to really learn maps, but will they hold up over hundreds of hours? โช๏ธFights are decided by gun skill, clever ability use, map awareness, how strong your shield is, how many healing supplies you have, etc โช๏ธExample: If you have one bar of shield and enemy has four, you'll lose 1v1, but change it up with powerful grenades, status effects like toxic or overheat, backpacks are "transformative", etc Gameplay Trailer โถ๏ธ Gameplay Overview โถ๏ธ PS Blog โก๏ธ IGN โก๏ธ GamesRadar โก๏ธ โถ๏ธ](https://image.24vids.com/tw-1911151387884368075/amplify_video_thumb/1911144961749184512/img/PCWzZVWXyT_s-3eX.jpg)
