What game is this about? Hawked is a free extraction shooter that launched on Steam in December 2023 and is now also playable on PS5/PS4 and Xbox Series X|S.
The shooter attracts with comic-style graphics, vibrant colors, special effects, and fast-paced gameplay. As a team of three players, you must explore ancient ruins on a small island, solve puzzles, and find glyphs to reach the main artifact. Because with this loot, you want to leave the island faster than the opposing teams.
A trailer has now announced an update that expands existing modes and introduces a new PvP mode:
New enemies, new artifacts, new mode
What does the update bring? The update from April 18, 2024, expanded the two existing modes with new fiery enemies and three new artifacts. With the update, even more obstacles are now in your way when you want to leave the island with your loot.
In addition to this expansion, a new PvP mode called “Wonder Rush” was also announced. In the trailer, you can get a glimpse of what to expect in this mode.
As a duo, you will compete against other duos and must prove who the better miner is. Your task in this mode will be to mine the rare “Wonderium.” These are formations resembling shiny crystals. Your goal is to mine more within a certain time than your opponents.
A race against time and your opponents
What sounds simple at first indeed poses several challenges. Your opponents can attack and kill you at any time. Although you will respawn at a spawn point after dying and can continue mining, it will cost you time.
During this time, your opponents can continue to collect, potentially giving them the decisive advantage. In the trailer, you can also see that through attacks, you can lose your already collected “Wonderium” to your opponents.
In this mode, it’s about finding the right strategy as a duo, relying on each other, not dying, and not forgetting the time.
How long can you play this mode? Even if the updates for the existing modes might remain, you can only play the new PvP mode for a limited time: from April 18 to April 28.
