    Marathon was originally planned for release on September 23, 2005, but Bungie announced last June that it had officially delayed the game, citing a need for more time to refine and test.

    The delay followed mixed feedback from players to alpha tests, as well as a significant controversy around stolen artwork that was found in those test builds.

    Bungie claims that Marathon will feature no pay-to-win mechanics, and players will have access to all gameplay updates (maps, Runner shells, events, etc), with an additional reward pass that won’t expire.
