After playing Bungie's bold new extraction shooter for over a month, what's the final verdict?

★★★★ ★

With spellbinding combat and high-concept maps, Marathon is far more than a cool aesthetic draped over the bones of an extraction shooter. Eurogamer's review.

3.5/5

Bungie's Marathon does a lot right and is a compelling extraction shooter, but it has major issues that need to be resolved.

90/100

A confident reminder that nobody does an FPS like Bungie.

9.25/10

Bungie's excellent audio design and gunplay, paired with increasingly complicated level design borrowing from over a decade of expertise designing Destiny raids coalesce into something special. Marathon is proof Bungie is still at the top of its game.

Prepare to die, every day, all the time.
