Meteor Games to publish high-end online game Hawken in December (exclusive)
22.05.12
Hawken is one of the coolest online games in development for publication on the web. Adhesive Games , the startup studio that is making the game, is announcing today that its Meteor Entertainment division will publish the game as a free-to-pay title in December.
Hawken is a “mech shooter” title, a sci-fi multiplayer game where users get into large walking robots and shoot each other with heavy weaponry such as rockets. The title looks beautiful and it has been in the works for more than a year, and it is one of the first in what could be a wave of web-based games with stunning visuals. The company is betting that the combination of outstanding visuals and the free-to-play model could be disruptive for console games.
Khang Le, the co-founder and chief executive of Adhesive Games in Alhambra, Calif., said in an interview that the game is a fast-action mech combat game in the first-person shooter genre.
