Bungie Rewards Players $500 for Month-Long 'Marathon' Play

Bungie is conducting a 30-day remote playtest for its upcoming game Marathon, offering select testers $500 if they play daily for an hour and complete surveys. The test coincides with the game's delayed launch, which is now expected before March 2026, following a poor initial reveal and delays. Participation is limited to previous testers, and the test aims to gather feedback before a broader release.
