From the blog: "we have some big news about the game. We are confirming that Hawken will launch as a free-to-play PC game. Initial release is officially scheduled for 12/12/12."
Never was a huge fan of indie game developers, but watching this trailer makes the hair on the back of my neck stand up. It looks fucking badass. And with a small crew, it must not be an easy task to accomplish. You have my utmost respect, Adhesive Games. Godspeed.

- is this project going to be majorly delayed like lukewarm medias anticipated indie game Primal Carnage (which btw doesn't hold a candle to this) which so far seems to have come to a complete standstill.
- is there goinng to be a released soundtrack or atleast a list of the audio tracks used in this game because the particular piece used in this trailer is beautiful.
Question: If this is a world colonized by man... Why are rescources such a problem? Did something happen to Earth/other places? Why can't they just import stuff from off world? Not that that would be free, but...
@Altaranalt Well yeah but to be honest it's not really comparable, they are using EPIC games engine, in essence on some level they have whole epic team backing them up.
@chaohlin Yeah I have to agree with you there. The story was way to week, and was basically a cookie cutter. With everything else in this trailer, they truly could have made a story line almost as good as their environments, but they are little known and without all the publicity, so cookie cutters here and there are to be expected.
I second DucksterRdr's post! This looks awesome! I can't wait to play it, but if it means an excellent quality game and not some rushed-out-the-door-to-meet-a-deadline piece of crap that is barely playable because of the rampant infestation of bugs, then I'll happily wait.
@DrSmokeTrees All you really need to do with Mech games is appeal to the Japanese market, TBH... If you do that the game will be a major success regardless of quality. :V
So pretty.... Keep up the good work guys, every time you show off new stuff I get more excited. Can't wait to give you folks your well earned money! :P
Will HAWKEN be on xbox360? because if it IS, then i can't wait untill it comes out. have they released any dates on when its going to come out to the world to buy and stuff?
The PS3s 7 year old hardware probably wouldn't be able to handle it. Also they'd have to find a publisher for it and the available ones would probably ruin it for their own profit. :p
@kalamari13 ahh pc fanboy i see. while maybe next ps system can get this as a launch one it blows up on pc. cause i predict now this game will be huge.
@DucksterRdr well, of course it can get better. no matter how good you think something looks if you take a step back and look at the big picture and compare it to other things, you may notice some things you may want to improve upon. For example, I would like to see a fully rendered internal cockpit rather than just a screen overlay and a kick-ass soundtrack. Not to say the game doesn't look great so far, but i'd rather have amazing than great.
@HubbaBubba9849 this game is made by a small group and they already beat the majority of professional groups in terms of graphics.....this already looks Amazing, the only thing for make it more "realistic" is the "Tyndall effect" on the smoke and the sorroundings, since there is a lot of fog in the levels, but it's something that miss realistically in so many games that it's ok not having it...
@1r0zz i agree but in the words of Gabe Newell, "A product is late for a while, but a product will suck forever." Don't take this the wrong way, i think Hawken looks great. What i'm saying is that if there is any way in which the developers can make it better, i'm willing to wait.
@HubbaBubba9849 unfortunately it do not work like this... in 2000 I have pro-ordered a game that I played this year... and I was not amused, not at all...15 years in development, 15 years of waiting and I had Duke Numken forever... so waiting DO NOT EQUAL quality. ;--;
this game is just so epicly boss compared to mech warrior 5.
