One of the many unique things about Marathon is its seasonal resets. But this begs the question: what do we keep, and what do we lose?

When Bungie released the Marathon roadmap, they announced that they would be enacting seasonal wipes every three months, with the first wipe taking place at the end of Season 1. While common in most extraction shooters, this has caused players to wonder if they should worry about their current inventory.

Here's what you can and can't keep after Marathon's seasonal reset.

What Do We Lose In Marathon's Seasonal Reset?

Marathon's seasonal resets are mandatory, which means everyone experiences a wipe. It will trigger at the end of every season automatically, unlike Arc Raiders, which gives players a choice if they want to join the seasonal wipe with the Expedition Project.

This means that everything in your vault will be cleared, as well as in-game credits. Your Faction progression and reputation will be reset to zero, and all your active contracts will be wiped. Your Runner level, skills, and Shell upgrades will also be wiped.

What Do We Keep In Marathon's Seasonal Reset?

Of course, you don't lose everything. You'll be able to keep things that you earned through challenges or purchased with real money. Additionally, all six Factions will be available right away - you won't need to unlock them manually again.
