Excited for Robot Action? Steel Hunters Debuts in Early Access Today

If you’re craving some thrilling robot action, today could be your lucky day! Steel Hunters has just rolled out its Early Access, and it’s free for everyone to dive into. This exciting game combines the intensity of extraction shooters with the competitive edge of battle royales, perfect for those who can’t get enough mecha excitement.

Developed by Wargaming, the minds behind the beloved World of Tanks, World of Warships, and World of Warplanes, Steel Hunters marks a fresh departure from their typical historical settings. This time, they’ve channeled their expertise in tactical warfare into an intriguing new arena.

At the start of Early Access, players are introduced to seven unique Hunters, which serve as this game’s dynamic take on mechs. A new Hunter is on the horizon and will be released during the Early Access phase, keeping the excitement alive. The game boasts three distinct maps and, naturally, a battle pass. The great news is there will be no progress resets when the game officially launches, so it’s a perfect opportunity to dive in now.

This seems to be a golden era for fans of robotics and mechanical action. Earlier this year, we saw the open beta launch of Mecha Break, which offered a nostalgic nod to the classic Gundam-style gameplay. In contrast, Steel Hunters opts for a more grounded, tactical approach both in gameplay and design, giving players a taste of strategic warfare.

If any of this piques your interest, why not jump in and give Steel Hunters a go? It’s available right now on PC. We’d love to hear your thoughts, so feel free to share your experiences with us in the comments below!
