Marathon commits to permanent passes and cosmetics-only monetization
TL;DR Summary
Marathon reveals a consumer-friendly monetization plan: permanent, non-expiring premium passes with rewards that are cosmetic-only; real-money microtransactions power cosmetics only, Silk is earned in-game and cannot be bought, and a separate Lux currency buys cosmetics. This approach avoids FOMO and keeps passes in the game indefinitely.
