The free-to-play mecha game Hawken came out in 2012 to decent reception, shutting down in 2018. Because the world needs more arcade-style mecha games, Hawken is coming back.

505 Games has announced Hawken Reborn, the reboot of the mecha game featuring what you loved about the game back in 2012: PvE mecha combat and mecha customization.

Hawken Reborn will be out for PC in Early Access form on 17 May. No console versions have been announced as of now. Check out the game’s full features and announcement video below.

• A New Way to Play: Experience a brand new player-versus-environment experience in the Hawken universe as you fight through the dystopic lands of Illal against warring factions, greedy corporations, and even more deadly adversaries.
• Visceral, High Octane Mech Combat: Experience moment-to-moment combat with highly mobile combat machines equipped with deadly weapons to dominate opponents and unique thrusters that enhance both ground and vertical mobility.
• Patrol For Bounty Contracts: Take on special Radio Missions while on Patrol to earn scrip and resources to upgrade your Mech. Be careful though; the longer you’re out there, the harder your enemies will become. Grab what you can and get back to base – if your Mech goes down, it’s back to the Hangar with nothing but scraps.
• Build Your Perfect War Machine: Construct military-grade mech models known as ‘Axes’ with an all-new blueprint and upgrade system featuring a deep progression of power-up options for weapons and key components.
• Discover a Re-imagined World: Uncover never-before-seen regions of Illal as you fight head-to-head with the corporations and factions fighting over a vast, futuristic, open world filled with resources, forbidden zones, and enemies lurking around every corner.
• Join an Evolving Narrative: Play a part in the next chapter of mech warfare in the Hawken universe with six opening missions to complete in this initial Arc. Venture out in your mech and fight alongside new characters to discover all new storylines hidden deep in Illal that will continue to evolve in the future.
