Destiny 2 developer Bungie has been in the eye of the storm for quite a long time now due to issues with delivering a good expansion for Destiny 2 with Lightfall, then layoffs in months that followed, as well as the cancelation of a project codenamed Matter and rumors regarding Marathon. There was a lot of hype surrounding Marathon when it was first announced, although the news that it was meant to be an extraction-based shooter didn't sit well with some fans. Originally one of the earliest Bungie IPs way before Destiny 2 and even Halo, Marathon was set to come back this year in a new guise, but it was delayed recently, and now it faces even more controversies due to new developments.
