Players buying a discounted Deluxe Edition of Marathon on PlayStation are discovering it does not include the full base game after a free trial ends.
Some confusion has arisen around Marathon's Deluxe Edition on the PlayStation Store. A discounted version bought by many users grants only Deluxe perks such as cosmetics, a premium seasonal pass and premium currency during the trial period. The store page has been updated to clarify that buyers receive no copy of the base game once the trial concludes. They must purchase the full version separately to continue playing. The issue stems from a PlayStation Store quirk where the free trial registers as the full game. This enabled the discounted Deluxe upgrade for trial owners. The situation follows Season Two's launch and initial maintenance problems. Bungie extended the free trial and provided players with some free in-game currency.
