Bungie has released a new game update for Marathon on August 11, and this might be the shortest changelog we’ve ever seen for a Bungie game.

Console gamers will see this download as Marathon update 1.028, and this brings the game to version 1.1.5.3, and is more of a hotfix than an actual game update.

For the changelog, and other info, read on.

Marathon’s Latest Hotfix Brings Update 1.028

The super-short changelog for today notes:

General

  • Fixed an issue where the FPS counter was not displaying accurately when using DLSS Frame Generation.
  • Fixed a visual issue where the error message for a solo player trying to launch into a Duos queue would incorrectly state that enabling Crew Fill would allow them to launch

For reference, the patch released earlier this month extended the duration of the Vault Breaker:

  • We have extended the duration of the Vault Breaker mode!
    • New end date: August 18.
    • Increased the available stock of some limited offers to reflect this extension.
    • We look forward to continuing to hear your feedback on this experimental PvE mode.
  • Updated the Key Template Armory reward to correctly specify that it only awards Cryo Archive keys.

There are also item economy changes, combat adjustments and more, which are available in the patch notes.
