If you’ve been itching for some epic robot action, today might just be your day. Get ready because Steel Hunters has kicked off its Early Access phase! This game is a free-to-play blend of extraction shooter elements combined with the intense flair of battle royales, perfect for those who have an insatiable craving for everything mecha.
Steel Hunters comes to us courtesy of Wargaming, the same talented team that brought us hits like World of Tanks, World of Warships, and World of Warplanes. This new venture marks a bold leap into a different arena for Wargaming, yet it maintains that tactical warfare flair we all love, now transported into a fresh and exciting mecha universe.
The Early Access launch of Steel Hunters introduces players to seven Hunters, which are the game’s unique take on mechs, including the promise of another arriving during the Early Access period. With three distinct maps to explore, a battle pass, and a reassuring note that your progress will be preserved when the official launch occurs, it’s a prime opportunity to dive in and start your adventure.
For fans of robotic escapades, this is definitely an exciting time. Just earlier this year, we experienced the open beta for Mecha Break, a thrilling game that harks back to the classic Gundam style. But Steel Hunters is carving its own path with a more grounded approach in both its gameplay and its design, offering a fresh perspective on the genre.
If Steel Hunters piques your interest, go ahead and give it a whirl! It’s available right now on PC. We’d absolutely love to hear your thoughts, so feel free to share them with us below!
