Nominated for an impressive 20 awards at E3, HAWKEN racked up 10 wins and 3 Honorable Mentions.
The stunning list of accolades includes:
- Destructoid’s Best of PC
- GameTrailers’ Best Free to Play
- GameTrailers’ Best Online Only
- Polygon’s E3 Editor’s Choice Award
- Awesome Robo’s E3 2012 Best Overall Title – “One of the most jaw dropping games we played at E3 this year.”
- GamingIrresponsibly’s Best of Indie
