The Marathon Server slam has multiple cosmetics that can be earned in different ways. Let’s take a look at all of them individually –
Codex Cosmetics
The ‘Codex’ in Marathon can be accessed from the game’s main screen. Once opened, you will find several categories, each containing multiple achievements that can reward free cosmetics. For instance, under Career and Feats of Mastery, the ‘This is Marathon’ achievement can unlock the Baseline Calibration background. On the other hand, ‘Requiem for a Cyborg’ achievement grants the Sacrificer background.
Platform Cosmetics
Marathon is also offering free weapon charms to players who participate during the Server Slam event. For instance, Steam players will get a Crowbar charm, and Xbox players can unlock the Emerald Clutch and Emerald Catch charms. On the other hand, PS Plus subscribers can get charms inspired by games like Ghost of Yotei, Helldivers 2, and Death Stranding 2.
Twitch Cosmetics

Things Aren’t Looking Smooth for Marathon’s Server Slam

So far, at least on paper, according to SteamDB, the Marathon Server Slam event looks to be a success. The game managed to reach a peak of 143,621 players, and is currently hovering around 60,000 players. This number could rise over the weekend as more players jump in for their first hands-on experience.
However, a quick look at Twitter suggests that it’s not all going smoothly. Some players feel the game feels cluttered, the NPCs are difficult, and the game isn’t something they’re willing to pay for.
everything is so cluttered, the inventory stats look useless and clutters everything. a real eye sore of a game tbh. npc’s are challenging i guess for how much damage they do. nothing different from destiny. art style is fine but it should have stayed in destiny 2 dsc imo pic.twitter.com/uM9zuNOAOl— Jeffery.

It’s ok to say a game is ass when it’s ass I don’t understand the people that are glazing it. You need to realize how big bungie is and this is the best they could do in 4 or 8 years however long.— Blitz (@BlitzJaw) February 27, 2026
It’s going to be interesting to see how things unfold for Marathon once it releases on March 5, 2026, as this game could reveal what lies ahead for Bungie.
