Issue #3: Worlds Beyond is Coming on November 14!

A new corruption breaks apart X-Isle and mutates all it touches. Brace for impact as it all comes together in a new Reality… or should we say Realities?

Tackle PvE Expeditions together with friends to advance Storylines across three distinct realities. Take on rival Renegades Solo or as a Squad in PvP Mode. Gain the support of GRAIL’s finest through the Reputation System, and craft affix-charged Artifacts through Synthesis. Experience the chaos in Issue #3: Worlds Beyond on November 14!

TEAM UP FOR CO-OP EXPEDITIONS

With the Heart of the Island unleashed, our world has shattered into three Realities: The Disciples, VEKTR, and GRAIL. It’s up to you Renegades to team up, venture across them all, and bring them back to the true timeline in the long-awaited PvE Expeditions Mode, a swashbuckling co-op adventure for Squads of up to three players (with no PvP rivalry)!

Assist Tabytha in defeating The Elder in the Disciple’s Kingdom (available for free in the base game), and join Nellie on her path of vengeance against Bodhi through VEKTR’s Invasion or tag alongside Bjorn to save GRAIL from the brink of greed from the Corrupted Heartland in Realities (included with the Realities Expansion Pass).

Embark on each hunt against ever-changing odds as match-altering Mutators shift reality, and dare to delve through the final Vault within the Treasury to grab the ultimate prize!

RESCUE NEW ALLIES, CHALLENGE OLD FOES

An old forgotten signal has flared up in all the madness, coming from an old guard of GRAIL long thought lost to a storm of endless alternate dimensions. CAPS has been traversing the dimensions for centuries, a little chaos here, and some Renegade wits there might just help him find his way.

As for Bodhi Hogan, he’s triple the threat as his reality has split across the three X-Isles. Could be a good moment for him to do some soul-searching, or maybe just get dealt a triple dose of justice.

RAISE YOUR REPUTATION

Rise up in the hearts and minds of GRAIL’s Finest. Follow the Story and complete Story Quests and Mastery Quests from Nellie, Cynthia, Bjorn, and Tabytha across Expeditions to level up each Reputation track and get access to Weapons, Mods, and other rewards.

• Story Quests: Advance the storyline and delve into the character’s activities and motivations, revealing more of HAWKED’s overall storyline. They can only be completed once and grant a lot of Reputation.
• Mastery Quests: These are mostly focused on quantitative gathering or mastery of something, with a narrative less impactful to the main story. They are repeatable but grant less Reputation than Story Quests.

NOTE: Your Character Reputation levels will be persistent from Issue to Issue. GRAIL Loyalty will be removed in Issue #3: Worlds Beyond, and all previous progress will be transferred to Reputation.

CRAFT YOUR LOADOUT

Find a purpose for each and every piece of loot you extract from X-Isle — including your hoard of duplicate Artifacts and Trinkets — through Synthesis! Experiment with their qualities, upgrade their abilities and unleash their charged affixes on your unsuspecting foes.

• Legendary Affix: Grants an additional quality.
• Masterwork Affix: Grants an improvement to an Artifact’s existing attributes.
• Corrupted Affix: a Kiss/Curse mechanic that grants an improvement alongside a Corruption that significantly alters the Artifact's use in gameplay.

ADVENTURE TO WORLDS BEYOND

Go on Expeditions in two new Realities and face new foes with a Realities Expansion Pass or Master of Realities Expansion Pass. Amp up your Loadout with special weapons and Artifacts—they’ll do the trick to get you battle-ready against strange new enemies and loot even more treasure with a myriad of perks!

To show our appreciation for all the Renegades who stuck by GRAIL and continue to plunder X-Isle, we're giving you the chance to get the Realities Expansion Pass for FREE. All accounts over 15 days old that log in daily and receive XP from at least 5 completed matches between November 9–13 are eligible to receive it. It’s a pretty big leap for HAWKED, so we don’t want to leave our brightest buccaneers behind!

Stay tuned for more coming to Issue #3: Worlds Beyond, and prepare to hunt on November 14!
