Marathon is leaning harder into PvE, and it's no longer just an experiment 😳 Bungie extended the temporary Vault Breaker mode until August 18th, with a full permanent PvE mode coming in Season 3. You start with nothing, earn currency for upgrades, and face the final boss The Compiler. Loot doesn't carry across modes, only in-game currency does. Some players WORRY the original extraction mode will be left behind as the studio scrambles for a new winning formula.

⚡️Marathon game director Joe Ziegler is LEAVING Bungie. His last day is this Friday. Julia Nardin and Del Chafe III now take over the extraction shooter. And from July 21 to August 4, the game gets a PvE test mode Vault Breaker, solo, duo, or trio. Full launch is set for Season 3. Ziegler says the new leads are ready for an "even brighter" future 🔥

⚡️No more rumours, Marathon gets official PvE: starting July 21 with the Vault Breaker test mode. Raid the Cryo Archive vaults roguelite-style, difficulty ramps up each run 🔥 Rewards unlock gear usable across other activities. Test runs until August 4, so don't sleep on it. PvE squad, your time is NOW 🎮

Deadlock keeps evolving: Valve tweaked objectives and hero balance again 🧐 The Urn transport got harder (less speed, more revealing), while the Breaker is now more valuable. Reward shares are reduced, team > individual. Heroes: Graves GOT BUFFED, Shiv and Drifter were noticeably nerfed. Yamato mains enjoy the dash changes, Silver mains get a faster ult cooldown. Bigger changes are yet to come.

They should really return to truckers making things explode as a movie genre.
