Ordnance Heist: Marathon’s new limited-time PvE mode


The world of extraction shooters is getting a serious adventure boost. Marathon, the extraction shooter, is successfully experimenting with new gameplay formats to capture player interest, and their latest move is a massive, multi-layered experience: the introduction of Ordnance Heist.

This new limited-time mode flips the script, offering players a thrilling mix of PvE and PvP action. Instead of traditional extraction, players will now engage in a dynamic, multi-run chase across various zones. The objective is clear: players must hunt through these different areas to earn UESC Manifests, which they can then use to acquire fresh rewards, including MIDA and Traxus items.

The ultimate goal of the Heist is to reach the central prize: the elusive Firestorm. This structure creates a compelling gameplay loop where cooperation and competition are key to success.

Beyond the core chase, the event introduces exciting new gear. Players will also unlock the powerful Firestorm Power Weapon, which comes equipped with three unique mods, promising a significant upgrade to combat strategy.

Ordnance Heist is a time-limited event, running now through September 1st, giving players a focused window to dive into this intense experience. While this mode provides immediate excitement, the development team has big plans for the future.

Bungie has committed to expanding Marathon‘s PvE offerings, promising more permanent PvE modes down the line. These additions are slated to begin with Season 3, rolling out in late September, ensuring that the game continues to evolve with fresh, engaging content for all players.
