Bungie Tweaks Marathon Monetization, Previews First Post‑Launch Patch After Player Backlash

Deluxe buyers received 150 LUX as a make-good, with a patch slated for next week.

Overview

  • Bungie will raise the $10 LUX bundle from 1,100 to 1,120 and plans to auto‑credit 20 LUX for each such bundle previously purchased, with timing described as “in the near future.”
  • The first client update is scheduled for next week and will extend objective nav‑point visibility to 20 meters, up from 10.
  • Resource scarcity changes are coming to Perimeter, including increased spawns for Med Cabinets and Munitions Crates.
  • Starting ammo will be increased for the free MIDA, CyberAcme, and Arachne Sponsored Kits once the update goes live.
  • Bungie acknowledged complaints about storefront “dark patterns” and underwhelming cosmetics and battle pass rewards, and says it is discussing further improvements without a set timeline.
