Access granted. You have found your way to the Marathon. The ice around Cryo Archive cracks and groans. It seems nothing can stop you from getting in. It will be interesting to see if you can get out. 10 AM PT, March 20, 2026

The general philosophy behind our upcoming ranked mode is to test you/your crew's skill at the core loop. To us, this is about making sure that the game is about maximizing the value of your run. With this spirit a lot of the rules are built around testing you to think about what you're ante-ing up, how you're using it to get more out than what you brought in. Additionally, we also want to make sure the outcome of pvp interactions and high value events in this mode can be lucrative against your ante, and provide you with the option to get even more out of the session if you take the risk to do them. In other words: in ranked you're gonna be rewarded for taking risks, but taking risks means you also put yourself in danger of losing something. The further you advance in ranks the more you can risk (and in some ways have to risk to advance) and the more you have to lose if your ambitions don't pan out. We're excited to get your eyes, ears, and hands on this feature. Good luck out there :).

Marathon's unique ranked system can be a lot to understand when you're new to it. We've prepared a resource to help you get used to figuring out score targets, loss penalties, and more.

Put your survival skills to the test, climb the competitive ladder, and prove you’re a top Runner on Tau Ceti in Ranked mode.

I mean, it feels just like what it is, right? Like a trillion pixels...

The most important discovery has been made #marathon

As we're getting closer and closer to seeing the doors open for the Cryo Deck of the Marathon Ship, please be advised when it does open: surviving will be a challenge for even the most prepared of crews. (Everyone will have something new to learn). But we believe for those of you who are brave enough, it'll be a journey that you'll remember. TL;DR: Cryo Deck is a Pinnacle Challenge in more ways than one.

We gathered some thoughts from people who've played Marathon. Here's what they had to say.

Alright everyone we're going a bit rogue here. We have a bit of an experimental feature that's in development we want to test and we'd love for you to help. As of Wednesday morning 3/18 at 10am PT, we'll be enabling a limited time duos queue on Perimeter only to test how the game plays with crews of 2 at a wider scale. Important things to note: -- It will be on Perimeter only for now. -- The test will last about 2 weeks (but we might cut it off early or elongate it depending on what's going on). -- You can only enter duos with a premade group of you and another friend. (no matchmaking solo into duos). -- You will be matched with other duos only. -- You can select "Perimeter - Duo" from the zone select screen to access it. (not the final intended ux flow right now) -- Some things will be a bit jank. Just a note: this is a bit of an experimental feature so we expect to learn some things along the way and make changes to future versions of this. This likely won't be the final implementation of how it would look and flow in the game, but for now it was easiest way for us to get it to you all to help us test. We're excited to run this experiment with you all. Pending what we learn, we're hoping to expand duos as a queue in the future and we wanted to take this first step sooner than later so we could understand how it affects our game better before investing a lot more time in fleshing out the feature. Additionally, this is unlikely to be the last experiment we run, so look forward to more as we continue to evolve Marathon. FOR SCIENCE!
