Interested in Robot Combat? Steel Hunters Enters Early Access Today

If you’ve been eager to dive into some robot-filled adventures, today might just be your day! Steel Hunters has entered the realm of Early Access, offering an exciting experience for gamers craving some mechanized action. This free-to-play game uniquely mixes the intensity of extraction shooters with the thrill of battle royale.

Developed by Wargaming, the creators well-known for World of Tanks, World of Warships, and World of Warplanes, Steel Hunters introduces a fresh take by moving tactical combat into the futuristic world of mechs. It’s a noticeable shift from their previous historical settings, yet carries the same strategic depth fans love.

With its Early Access debut, Steel Hunters features seven unique mechs, referred to here as Hunters, and promises to introduce an additional Hunter during this preliminary phase. Currently, players can explore three diverse maps and progress through a battle pass, with the assurance that their progress won’t be reset at the game’s full launch. If you’re contemplating getting in on the action, now’s the perfect opportunity.

It’s been a remarkable period for fans of the robotic genre. Earlier this year, the open beta for Mecha Break offered a different angle on mech gameplay, reminiscent of the classic Gundam style. In contrast, Steel Hunters opts for a more grounded, realistic approach in both its gameplay mechanics and its design aesthetics.
