I'm sure many of you already know of this Free2Play Mech game, for an indie game it hasn't really been flying below the radar..
But for those who aren't familiar with it, Hawken is a action filled Mech combat game developed by Adhesive Games, an independent studio. The game focuses on bringing intense and fast paced action as well as progressive gameplay.
Perhaps similar to World of Tanks, you buy a Mech type and you select it's loadout, spending experience points on upgrades and money on special equipment. Depending on the upgrades you are able to customize your Mech to your role.
After participating in the Alpha, I have to say that Hawken does a terrific job in capturing the feeling of piloting a Mech and the atmosphere is amazing! It may, however, seem a rather bit faster than many MechWarrior fans are used to.
But instead of yapping on about it's gameplay, how about a video of the game in action..
