Marathon has introduced a new mode called Vault Breaker, allowing players to explore the raid map Cryo Archive solo or in groups of two or three. This mode features a unique progression system where players enhance their power across multiple matches with the goal of reaching the final vault. To participate, players need a "Sponsored Kit," a free loadout designed for balanced gameplay. Unlike traditional extraction shooters, players will not keep gear or items found during runs; instead, they collect Vault Data, a currency for upgrading the Sponsored Kit or purchasing gear for other modes. The mode is set to launch on July 21 as part of a mid-season update, which will also introduce the Cradle Evolution system and various quality-of-life improvements. Community reactions are mixed, with some players criticizing the inability to retain items, while others see it as an opportunity to learn the map without high stakes.
