Marathon Update 1.0.9: Slower Self-Revives and Streamer Tools

Marathon Update 1.0.9 increases self-revive durations to match tactical combat pacing, while Season 2 introduces anonymity and anti-stream sniping tools.

Upcoming changes to Marathon adjust self-revive speeds to better fit tactical gunfights and introduce privacy features for creators.

Self-Revive Kit Adjustments

Update 1.0.9 lengthens the time required for a downed runner to self-revive and rebalances the Revive Speed stat. At 0 Revive Speed, the timer shifts from 12 seconds to 16 seconds. At 100 Revive Speed, the timer moves from 7 seconds to 12 seconds.

Streamer Safety Additions

Season 2 delivers tools aimed at protecting creators from stream sniping. All players can hide their personal and crew names on screen, replace runner names with generic labels across pings, kill feeds, death recaps, and spectate views, substitute other players' names with generic alternatives, and configure a matchmaking delay.

Why this patch matters

Update 1.0.9 targets fast combat resets by nerfing self-revive speeds, while Season 2 equips creators with robust anonymity settings.
