Bungie's struggles grow more evident as Marathon undergoes a handful of drastic changes, with a move away from seasonal content, a focus on PvE, and a significant delay for the game's next update.

Bungie confirmed today that Marathon's next major update, which was slated to release on September 22, will now arrive on December 8. This update will add permanent PvE content, a social space with a firing range, an experimental TDM mode, and much more. On October 6, the game will get a smaller update that resets progression and the in-game economy to prepare for an overhaul.
