Marathon Players Accidentally Pay Less, Get Game Free

Bungie is addressing a recent issue with Marathon's PlayStation Store listing that led some players to purchase the Deluxe Edition upgrade for less than the base game's price. The confusion arose when a $14 discount on the Deluxe Edition appeared to allow players to access the full game at a steep discount during Marathon's free-to-play week. However, the base game was still required to be purchased separately after the free period ended, causing frustration among affected players. In response, Bungie has confirmed that those who bought the Deluxe Edition under these conditions will receive the base game for free, in addition to the Deluxe content. The studio has also updated the store listing to clarify the terms.

Warframe Creator Criticizes Destiny 2's Ending of New Content

Bungie announced that Destiny 2 will stop receiving new content updates on June 9, shifting focus to new projects. Warframe creative director Rebecca Ford expressed strong disagreement with the decision, calling it 'unthinkable' and 'cataclysmic' for the gaming community. She emphasized that Destiny 2 has been a major force in the industry and questioned the business-driven rationale behind the move.
