Marathon gets a new video focusing on gameplay archetypes

If all goes well, Marathon will be released on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC next March. Thus, Bungie needs to promote its competitive FPS before a somewhat risky launch.

A total of seven archetypes are highlighted in this presentation. Some specialize in combat, healing, intelligence, or stealth.
