If you’re craving some robot action, then today could be your lucky day. Steel Hunters has officially entered Early Access! This free-to-play game skillfully combines the adrenaline-pumping elements of extraction shooters with the competitive nature of battle royales. It’s a perfect treat for those who are obsessed with all things mecha.
Steel Hunters is the brainchild of Wargaming, the developers renowned for hits like World of Tanks, World of Warships, and World of Warplanes. This game marks a noticeable shift from their traditional themes, bringing their expertise in tactical warfare to an entirely different arena.
The Early Access phase kicks off with seven unique Hunters, the game’s equivalent of mechs, with plans to reveal an additional Hunter as Early Access continues. Players can explore three distinct maps, take advantage of a battle pass, and enjoy the peace of mind that progress won’t be reset when the full game is launched. If you’re eager to dive in, there’s no better time than now.
It seems like an exciting era for lovers of all things robotic. Earlier this year, we witnessed the open beta for Mecha Break, offering a nostalgic nod to classic Gundam games with its unique take on mecha gameplay. Conversely, Steel Hunters delivers a more grounded, realistic approach, both in terms of strategy and aesthetic design.
If this piques your interest, don’t hesitate to check it out! Steel Hunters is readily available on PC. We’d love to hear your thoughts in the comments below!
