Marathon may be made for PvP fans, but Bungie says there's still plenty for the rest of us
Briefly

Marathon, Bungie's new extraction shooter, was revealed during a live stream from Bellevue, Washington. The game aims to introduce the beloved but niche genre to console players. Bungie’s Joe Ziegler and Andrew Witts shared insights on their mission to define the game's unique experience, emphasizing the challenges of transitioning a complicated genre to a broader audience. By drawing on lessons from their successes and failures with Destiny 2, they aim to craft an engaging and accessible PvP title, scheduled for release on September 23.
Joe Ziegler, Marathon's game director, mentioned that tackling the challenge of introducing a new genre like extraction shooters to console gamers is 'an exciting uphill battle'.
Ziegler spoke about Bungie's approach of focusing on creating a unique experience rather than simply making an extraction shooter, emphasizing the importance of defining their goals.
