Our upcoming release patch includes the final tweaks to our ranking frameworks, features and reported bugs. With the ranking changes, we will also be resetting stats and achievements which will allow everyone to start fresh on day 1.
For those who were previously part of our Early Access, we encourage you to check out H-Hour one more time after it officially releases. Many, many improvements have happened over the years to bring home this spiritual successor to the early SOCOM games.
For those who do not own the game, add H-Hour to your Steam Wish List so you are notified when the release goes live!
We could not have achieved this without the great work of our community developers, the custom map makers and the feedback received from our players during our Beta testing. Thank you one and all ːHHourStarː
