Bungie has announced a new Marathon playtest set for later this month, giving fans a chance to play the latest build of their new reboot.
The Marathon closed technical test is set for later this month, from October 22nd through the 28th. You can apply for the test over on the game’s official site and for PC via Steam.
“This is an important checkpoint for us as we test our improvements since Alpha, including three maps, five runner shells, prox chat, re-tuned combat pacing, solo queue, deeper environmental storytelling, and more,” the team said. “That said, the Technical Test build is a work in progress and will only include a portion of what’s planned for Marathon’s full release, focused on the early player experience.”
After the technical test is completed, the team will share a public update on the game’s development – and likely that promised new release date.
The Marathon reboot is in development for Windows PC (via Steam), Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5.
