New information on pricing and launch weapons for Bungie’s upcoming extraction shooter Marathon has been leaked online. These details from a known Destiny 2 and Marathon data miner include details on the game’s pricing, season pass, and even launch weapons.
In a series of posts on social media, Colony Deaks says that the game will launch with two editions and remain a premium-priced title.
According to their posts, Marathon’s base price will be $40—which has long been rumored–while the Deluxe Edition of the game will be “around $60”. The Deluxe Edition, they say, will include more skins for players and possibly more. There’s also a pre-order bonus that includes a Destiny ship, ghost, and sparrow, along with a weapon skin. Lastly, the Deluxe Edition will give players “around $30-ish worth of season pass tokens,” though they are unclear what the tokens will be for.
In addition to the game itself, Bungie is planning a season pass for the game that will be cosmetic only and cost “around $10”.
