While Marathon is an online-only shooter, Bungie intends on telling a story through intel and environmental storytelling. During gameplay players will take on contracts from six different factions. Completing these missions unlocks storytelling and a wide range of rewards. By the end, players will be able to piece together what happened to the lost colony.
