About this game

Marathon is a science-fiction extraction shooter set in the Tau Ceti system, reimagining the universe of the classic Marathon .

Rather than following a single linear campaign, the game places players in the role of cybernetic mercenaries known as Runners who infiltrate the abandoned colony on Tau Ceti IV in search of valuable technology and lost artifacts.

The world is a hazardous battleground filled with rival scavengers, remnants of the United Earth Space Council (UESC) security forces, and environmental dangers left behind after the mysterious collapse of the original expedition.

Gameplay revolves around high-risk runs into contested zones.

Players explore ruined research facilities, industrial complexes, and wilderness areas to gather loot while managing limited ammunition and supplies.

Exploration frequently escalates into fast-paced player-versus-player combat as rival crews compete for the same resources.

Success depends on extracting safely with stolen equipment, which is then used to upgrade gear, unlock cosmetics, and build stronger loadouts for future expeditions.

Each run therefore carries permanent risk: dying means losing everything brought into the mission.

Players control configurable Runner shells, synthetic bodies designed for different playstyles, such as heavy combat Destroyers, stealth-focused Thieves, or reconnaissance specialists.

Weapons, implants, and core systems can be extensively modified, allowing players to assemble specialized builds tailored for solo infiltration or coordinated team strategies.

Runs can be undertaken alone, in pairs, or as three-person crews, and proximity voice chat allows temporary alliances with rival Runners.

About PC

PC gaming spans over four decades, from early DOS titles to today's massive Steam and digital-storefront libraries. Because "PC" covers everything from 1990s CD-ROM releases to current AAA titles, it's the single largest platform by game count on Gamevaro. For collectors, PC gaming splits into two very different worlds: physical big-box releases from the 1990s and 2000s (increasingly collectible, especially complete-in-box with original manuals and inserts) and the modern digital library, which Gamevaro tracks for portfolio and spending purposes even though it has no resale market.

Gamevaro tracks Marathon (Itch) for PC with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.

Adding Marathon (Itch) to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This PC release dates back to 2018.

Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
