Are the Marathon servers offline for maintenance? If you’re encountering issues when setting off to scavenge your way across Tau Ceti IV alongside friends, that may very well be the case. To make the most of your free time, you can check the latest server status and maintenance schedules in this article and plan your looting and shooting sessions around them.
Although Marathon isn’t fully out yet, Bungie will likely take the servers offline to perform maintenance and deploy patches for its latest live service game. The initial rush of players curious to see how well the extraction shooter plays at launch may put a strain on the servers, which could also require a response from the developer.
Marathon Server Status
Marathon’s servers are currently online as the final hours of its server slam test roll through. The test will conclude on March 2 at 10 AM PT/6 PM GMT.
- Marathon Server Status: Online
When Marathon’s Server Slam ends, the servers will be taken offline for maintenance that will hopefully prepare them for the game’s official release later this week, on March 5.
While anyone could download the Server Slam client, playing Marathon after it launches requires a full purchase.
Depending on how Bungie handles things, the title’s full launch could go smoothly, but it might also follow in the footsteps of many other online games that struggle to keep up with the number of players trying to log in.
For the latest information on Marathon’s server status and maintenance, both at and after release, you can keep an eye on this article and the game’s official Twitter account.
