It did at one point, but I think they were forced to change it to Prey at some point in development. It had a “Shock” title to put it in line with System Shock and Bioshock.

“Bungie is making a new game based on Marathon”
Great, I’m in.
“It’s a multi-player extraction shooter”
Nope, I’m out. This smells like a “Prey” situation.
But Prey was actually good.
Prey was sooo good.
Sucks for the people who wanted a continuation of the original tho.
It was really good. I just wanted more indigenous themes if they were going to use the Prey name. It was such a disappointment in that respect.
prey 2 was going to be nothing like prey. I’m glad it didn’t happen tbh.
For real, immersive sim fans that haven’t played it are missing out. It probably should’ve had a different name though.

Believe it was ‘Neuroshock’
That rings a bell now that you mention it. A shock title is so much more fitting!
I had the same reaction to Marathon as well as the new Black Hawk Down.
