Bungie Restores Marathon Season 2 After 10-Hour Outage, Leaving Reward Bugs Unfixed

Summary
8pm PDT marked Marathon Season 2’s return after emergency maintenance resolved the launch-day Weasel, Monkey and Anteater disconnects that had been kicking players mid-match and costing them loot.
Bungie had delayed the season from its planned 10am PDT launch window, then offered free deluxe sponsored kits to players affected while it identified the fault and kept servers offline longer than first projected.
Some bugs remain, including codex unlock failures tied to major Season 1 achievements and missing VIP faction cosmetics; Eurogamer said a fully VIP account received only 2 of 6 rewards.
The rocky rollout hit as Bungie pushed a major reset, new modes and a free-to-play trial after Sony’s State of Play, though early player reaction to the revived Season 2 content has been positive.
