'Hawked' Celebrates 1.5 Million Players Milestone With New Cosmetics

by Rainier on March 13, 2024 @ 9:07 a.m. PDT

Hawked is an online PvPvE shooter in which teams or solo players race to collect and extract treasure from a remote island.

Go Solo or Squad up to explore a mysterious island, battle monsters, outwit enemy players, and steal arcane Artifacts in an all-out treasure hunt. Loot is persistent — extract it to develop and customize your Renegade with new abilities and cosmetics.

In Hawked players must explore this mysterious island, compete with each other, and battle greedy saurian so called Disciples in an all-out heist for treasure and mystical artifacts. But it’s not just the monsters they’ll have to worry about, other players are gunning for their treasure too. Players will also have to contend with puzzles and traps, hazardous environments, and a variety of other challenges along the way.

In the world of Hawked, the adventurers guild GRAIL has recently made the discovery of a lifetime: X-Isle, a mysterious island that harbors powerful artifacts from a lost civilization. Players must explore X-Isle, a recently-discovered treasure trove filled with loot. However, the nefarious, scaly Disciples have also laid claim to the island, and will not give up their conquest so easily. X-Isle is an enormous dynamic map, with each session challenging players to compete on different parts of the island. Its treasures and Artifacts are hidden in boobytrapped temples and ruins throughout.

Enter the Renegades, treasure-hunting mercenaries with a penchant for plundering. As Renegades, the players will have access to a large collection of weapons and gadgets, battle vicious monsters, outwit enemies, and gun down each other while roaming the island. Players will run, jump, surf, zipline, and soar through an ever-evolving world filled with deadly hazards, lush jungles, and ancient ruins.

Publisher and developer My.Games is thrilled to announce that treasure hunting and extraction shooter Hawked has reached 1.5 million players since its official launch on February 15, 2024.

The dedicated team behind the ambitious game is delighted to announce this significant achievement and is looking forward to welcoming all players into its vibrant world. With deep gratitude for the community's unwavering support, MY.GAMES unveils a heartfelt Accolades Trailer to commemorate this special moment.

In addition to reaching this milestone, My.Games launched a variety of new cosmetics inspired by Arabic/Amazigh cultures available in the shop starting March 13th.

The journey to 1.5 million players is a testament to the game's unique appeal and the enduring passion of its dedicated players, as expressed by producer Andy Andy Duthie: "We are deeply moved and grateful to reach the milestone of 1.5 million players on Hawked. This remarkable journey has been made possible by the incredible support and enthusiasm of our amazing community. We extend our heartfelt thanks to each and every player who has made Hawked a part of their gaming adventures."

Since launch, Renegades have collected 2,972,125 million artifacts, nearly 6 times as many artifacts found in The Louvre! Other iconic achievements and statistics can be found in the brand new infographic put together by the Hawked team.


Artifacts can be equipped once found on the island. They offer passive bonuses such as the ability to turn into a bush when crouching or offering a sixth sense for nearby enemies. Hawked currently has 18 types of Artifacts. Players can combine three at the same time, and all Artifacts can be found and upgraded in multiple levels of rarity.

Players can use them along with 16 types of gears such as boomerangs, deployable covers, a scouting falcon, and more, offering a wide range of customization options and gameplay styles. Gears and Artifacts are upgraded using currency gathered from selling and/or dismantling treasure on the Riftwake, the game’s social space. From sneaky assassins, to team focused support, in Hawked players can take their ideal Renegade onto the island.

Key Features:

  • Outfox and outgun rival Renegades and Disciples in a race to the top spot! Beat them all to the punch by locating Glyphs, unlocking the Treasury, and extracting valuable Artifacts.
