In case your weekend isn't already busy with the
Titanfall beta weekend, publisher Meteor Entertainment has today revealed that their free-to-play multiplayer mech combat title Hawken is now available through Steam Early Access.
Following on from news last week that the free title would see a release on Steam, Meteor Entertainment also states that the previous client launcher will no longer be available. Those looking to download the game will now find it via Steam.
AWKEN is a multiplayer first person shooter for PC that places you inside a mechanized war machine on the battlefield of a dystopian world called Illal. With strategic, fast-paced gameplay, HAWKEN features incredible alien landscapes, customizable and upgradable mechs, and dynamic experiences across multiple competitive game modes.
HAWKEN features 5 game modes: Team Deathmatch, Co-Op Bot Destruction, Missile Assault, Siege and Deathmatch. Each mode offers a unique gameplay experience that requires a different approach and hones a separate set of skills.
Check out the launch trailer for a dose of mech action and hit up the
Steam Early Access page for more. Currently to gain access players will have to purchase a $29.99 bundle, though the game is planning on launching as a free-to-play title.

Firstly, go jump in a frozen lake.
Secondly, I was adamant that I wasn't going to BUY THE GAME.
Thirdly, said beta was as bad as I thought it might be. Still not going to buy the game.
Fourthly, my comment on the beta being closed / now anyone can play weren't even directed at you. I suggest you go back (possibly to school) and re-read that whole comment chain.
