HAWKED is about to enter Open Beta on PC, and this time it’s a total free for all. Prepare to board the Riftwake and explore, fight, and loot your way across X-Isle from August 3–17!
Preload now on MGLauncher and Steam to play HAWKED for free from August 3. Join the hunt during Open Beta to unlock a bounty of rewards from the FREE Renegade Pass, plus exclusive Twitch Drops!
WELCOME TO HAWKED!
New ‘round these parts? HAWKED dares you to become a Renegade and commence the ultimate treasure hunt. This free-to-play extraction shooter features adventurous exploration, daring PvP and PvE encounters, and a bounty of ancient treasures ripe for the taking.
You’ll start your journey aboard the Riftwake, a vast submersible vessel that’s your only way to get to and from the mysterious island of X-Isle in one piece.
Here are a few pointers before you rush in guns blazing:
- JOIN THE HUNT: The adventurers guild GRAIL has recruited a band of Renegades—treasure-hunting mercenaries—to infiltrate X-Isle and retrieve powerful relics from a lost civilization. That’s where you come in! Squad up with pals to explore this new world as you battle to claim these ancient treasures, then get them safely back into GRAIL custody.
- FIGHT DIRTY: When the chips are down, fortune favors the bad. Outfox and outgun rival Renegades and monstrous Disciples in a race for the best loot!
- ADAPT YOUR LOADOUT: Switch up your playstyle on the go with new weapons and ammo, gear upgrades, special abilities and tech, and mystical powers.
- EXPLORE X-ISLE: Use your trusty Traverser to journey across the island’s lush plains, into dense jungles, and through ancient ruins.
- LOOT 'EM UP: Solve puzzles and dodge deadly traps to locate Glyphs, unlock the Treasury, and snag valuable Artifacts. Extract your bounties to upgrade and customize your Renegade!
As HAWKED is still in active development, your playtime and feedback from Open Beta will be used to improve the overall gameplay experience. All progress made in Open Beta will be reset in the release version of the game (except for Renegade Pass rewards and Twitch Drops).
