Marathon Symbiosis Update Out Dec. 8 With New PvE & PvP Modes

Bungie has announced that the Symbiosis update for Marathon will launch on December 8, 2026, and comes with a wealth of fresh content including brand new PvE and PvP modes.

First up, the perimeter zone has been updated with fungal growth and alien life transforming the area, with new payable spaces such as the underground Burrows and submerged Reservoir now available. Expedition meanwhile is the first phase of a new PvE-only mode built around a three-run series, where you’ll play solo or with a crew and face new combat and environmental challenges.

Also new is Deathmatch, an experimental PvP mode that offers 3×3 Team Deathmatch bouts where two crews compete for points without risking their permanent loadouts. Also on the table is Limbo, a new social space where Runners can meet up, hit up the firing range to test weapons and gear, and challenge each other in the duelling pit. Players can also obtain the Bishop Runner shell, plus new weapons such as the V17 Flamethrower and Maverick.

Finally, Bungie revealed that Open Play Week will run December 8 — 15 so you can take Marathon for a spin during this time.
