Farewell Early Access!
Thank you to the Renegades who’ve looted X-Isle on PC since November 30! Your consistent outfoxing of Disciples and rivals in pursuit of the ultimate prize has brought us to this moment. Your feedback and bug reports pointed us in the right direction, and throughout Early Access we’ve already made a host of improvements, bug fixes, and quality-of-life updates to HAWKED. Here are some of the highlights:
- Contracts: Chat with Nellie Ruffin to embark on missions for lucrative rewards.[/*]
- Balancing: Gear, Boosters, Artifacts, Weapons, and Glyphs have been assessed and tweaked thanks to your combat tests.[/*]
- Movement & Traversal: Improvements have been deployed and continue to roll out.[/*]
- Improved PvP: We’ve made a host of gameplay changes to sharpen the PvP experience on X-Isle.[/*]
- Oceania Server: Now up and running for Renegades playing down under.[/*]
Check out the Early Access Retrospective to find out how we built a new and improved HAWKED in Early Access.
Issue #1: Renegades Continues!
A lot’s been going on at the Riftwake. Bjorn’s been making headway on the Glyphstone since it booted up and started whispering about the Heart of the Island. Might be good to check up on him and see if he needs some Renegade reinforcements to test his whacky theories!
Uncover the further mysteries of X-Isle in a new Questline, and run riot with the latest discoveries and additions:
- 3 Artifacts to track down, loot from the Treasury, and add to your Loadout.[/*]
- 2 Gear featuring all-new abilities to deploy on your hunts.[/*]
- 3 Boosters bringing bonuses through legendary Renegades’ comic adventures.[/*]
- [b]8 Glyphs to collect and advance to the final treasure.[/b][/*]
- 2 X-Isle Encounters to puzzle over and complete in pursuit of Glyphs.[/*]
We’re also adding several QOL improvements and adjustments, including a full UI revamp to better streamline your Renegade experience! Look forward to these changes and lots more arriving with the Day 1 Update (patch notes to follow).
