The World of Marathon
In Marathon, players inhabit a Runner, a cybernetic mercenary scouring the remains of a lost colony of Tau Ceti IV for fortune and power. Players team up in crews of three as they battle rival Runner teams and hostile security forces for weapons and upgrades. Survive and everything they’ve scavenged is theirs to keep for future runs on Tau Ceti IV—or if they’re brave enough, a journey to the derelict Marathon ship that hangs above.
Tau Ceti IV
Welcome to Tau Ceti IV, a lost colony whose inhabitants disappeared without a trace. Rival factions compete for the resources left behind, hiring Runners who’ve given up their human form for biosynthetic shells. Death is but a hurdle in this cutthroat competition where power, fortune, and answers to Tau Ceti IV’s mysteries hang in the balance.
Become a Runner
Choose from a roster of cybernetic mercenaries with unique abilities. Players customize their Runner’s playstyle with the weapons, implants, and equipment they collect on their runs. Strategize, execute, and become Tau Ceti’s most feared mercenary.
A High-Stakes Journey to Grow in Power
Bungie’s best-in-class FPS gunplay sets the stage for a unique mix of tactical and fast-paced action, where every run is a tense competition for a big score. End game challenges, ranked play, seasonal storytelling, community events, and more await in Season 1.

00:00BOOP BOOP
00:30Marathon is a team-based extraction shooter set around the mysterious and cutthroat world
00:46of Tau Ceti IV.
00:48You are a runner, a cybernetic mercenary who's given up their human form for a biosynthetic
00:55shell with unique abilities and stats, capable of both tactical and fast-paced combat.
01:03Here you'll fight in a crew of up to three players across a variety of zones and points of interest.
01:10You'll face rival runners in zones of up to 18 players, countless security forces,
01:17and otherworldly threats to scavenge the remains of a lost colony for glory and fortune.
01:26The environments of Tau Ceti IV are filled with weapons, materials, and equipment you can scavenge throughout the map.
01:35Before deploying, you'll strategically build your loadout and select a runner to ensure you're equipped for the run ahead.
01:43Your objective is simple. Get in, gather as much loot as you can, and make it out alive.
01:49Die, and all your gear will be up for grabs. Survive, and your loot can be taken into future runs
01:57as you grow in power and fill your vault. Death is inevitable, but it's never the end.
02:04Think quickly on your feet and outplay your opponents, and in your next run, you and your teammates will be the ones coming out on top.
02:14And even if you're down on your luck, factions can sponsor you with a fresh loadout so you can get right back into the fight.
02:21Bungie brings its best-in-class first-person multiplayer action to the forefront. Dynamic and tactile gunplay,
02:30runners with unique playstyles, and customizable builds create highly dynamic and strategic teamfights.
02:37Whether you're on a zero-to-hero run, or high-rolling with powerful gear, you'll need to use your best judgment
02:45when you decide which fights to pick and how. Because no matter how geared you are, players with skill and strategy
02:54will always have the edge. Marathon is designed to be played in crews, with contextual pings, shared objectives,
03:02and down but not out to streamline playing with your friends. Death is not the end.
03:10And if you're the last one standing, you can overcome the odds to revive your teammates and get out with your hard-earned loot.
03:18And if you believe your skills alone are enough to conquer any challenge, we give you the freedom
03:23to opt out of crew fill to take all the glory for yourself as a solo runner.
03:29No two runs in Marathon ever play out the same. With dynamic events, variable weather,
03:36and unpredictable players, you'll have to adapt on the fly if you want to survive.
03:42Each run has a time limit, and anything can happen while you're chasing your objective.
03:48Looking to unlock upgrades or increase your faction reputation?
03:52Slip into the shadows as void and ghost past your enemies. Search the map for rare materials
03:58and profit opportunities without being discovered. Want to push enemy teams and steal their loot?
04:06Bring in Glitch with agility in butt and your strongest weapons to disrupt rival crews.
04:12Running support for your friends? Grab extra equipment, shield charges,
04:16and a specialized backpack to be the lifeline they need. You're always free to experiment with team
04:25compositions. And the only limit to how you want to play your runner is your loot and imagination.
04:32End game challenges, ranked play, discovering secrets, seasonal storytelling, community events,
04:38and more. All await you in season one, where you and your friends will start to unravel the mysteries
04:45of Tau Ceti IV. Remember, you're only ever one run away from your next big score.
