The fourth map of Marathon, aka Cryo Archive, is coming very soon to the game, and we can start our preparations to unlock it when it eventually arrives.

Unlike maps like the Perimeter and Dire Marsh, beginners won't have immediate access to it. While the map isn't live as of writing, you can complete all the requirements of unlocking the Cryo Archive map.

How to reach level 25 in Marathon

This one is an easier, but lengthier, process. There's no shortcut, but you have to focus on finishing the contracts. When you finish a contract, you gain XP and Reps (the latter is required to improve your standing with different factions).

Keep gaining the XP until you reach Level 25, and you should be able to unlock Cryo Archive when the map is added to Marathon. To gain more XP, you should be active on your run. Killing runners, UESC enemies, and opening loot helps to get more experience points as well.
