Marathon Patch 1.1.5.2 Ships, Extending Vault Breaker PvE Mode to August 18

Bungie released update 1.1.5.2 on August 4, 2026, formally extending the experimental Vault Breaker PvE mode through August 18 to allow more testing before a fuller PvE experience arrives in September. The patch also included weapon balance changes for the V22 Volt Thrower and KKV-9SD. This follows an earlier late-July announcement that the mode's original two-week run was being extended due to positive player feedback.
