Bungie's 'Marathon' Season 2 to launch in June…tests comeback with a full reset

Bungie will reset loot and faction levels in Marathon Season 2, starting June 2, as part of a major overhaul.

The studio is simplifying progression, adding a new crafting system, and introducing experimental queues.

The changes come after a steep drop in player numbers and criticism that the game is too hard and too complex.

Season 2 is seen as a make-or-break attempt to stabilize Marathon and revive its live-service future.
