Hawken Reborn: Five Years After The OG PC Version's Death, It's Back

The servers of the initial mech FPS were obliterated in January 2023, and also now 505 Gamings as well as Digital Bros are trying to fill the gap (because the original game’s web servers are still running on PlayStation 4 and also Xbox One …).

Hawken was released on Steam in December 2012, followed by a Ybox One port in July 2023 as well as a PlayStation 4 port in July 2023. The PS4 version was released after the PC web servers were closed down, making the free-to-play video game offered just on gaming consoles for 5 years. This situation is transforming, albeit at first in early accessibility only, as they don’t wish to introduce Hawken Reborn with a full launch quickly. It appears easy to understand.

The video game’s Heavy steam page says, “Welcome to the globe of Illal, a world once thought to be humankind’s future utopia, developed into a grim dystopia driven by corporate corruption and greed. Illicit terraforming poisoned the atmosphere, and a dreadful accident brought to life the “Giga,” a nanite pester that ruined half the world. Come to be a mercenary pilot, matching your mech versus the threats of Illal, getting fame, fortune, and resources to get to the truth behind its bodyguard of lies.

Experience a new player-versus-environment experience in the Hawken world as you hammer out the dystopic lands of Illal against warring factions, money grubbing firms, and also even more fatal enemies. Experience moment-to-moment battle with very mobile fight devices geared up with dangerous weapons to dominate opponents as well as special thrusters that improve ground and also upright mobility. Tackle unique Radio Goals while on Patrol to earn scrip and also resources to upgrade your Mech. Take care; the longer you’re available, the harder your opponents will come to be. Get what you can and get back to base – if your Mech drops, it’s back to the Hangar with just scraps.

Construct military-grade mech designs known as ‘Axes’ with an all-new plan and upgrade system including a deep progression of power-up alternatives for weapons as well as vital components. Discover never-before-seen regions of Illal as you deal with head-to-head with the corporations and intrigues contesting a large, futuristic, open world full of sources, forbidden zones, and adversaries lurking around every edge. Figure in the next chapter of mech warfare in the Hawken cosmos, with 6 opening objectives to finish in this initial Arc. Venture out in your mech as well as battle alongside brand-new personalities to find all brand-new storylines concealed deep in Illal that will certainly continue to develop.”

Hawken Reborn introduces on Heavy steam on May 17 in early access.
