“Steel Hunters”: A New Game from Wargaming

The next PC game from WG, “Steel Hunters”, was officially revealed at The Game Awards 2024.

WOT Express already wrote about it during the closed alpha test a few years ago. Now the beta test starts from December 12 to 22. Game engine: Unreal Engine.

STEEL HUNTERS is a Free-to-Play, PvPvE shooter with futuristic mech battles. Fight to collect rare loot on an abandoned Earth, and use combat tactics to turn rivals into scrap. Choose your Hunter and playstyle to battle 5 other duo teams. Only one can extract from the Hunting Grounds.

Gameplay:

An old WOT Express post about this game from ~2022 (it’s the closed alpha version of Steel Hunters):

Steel Hunters is a new game from Wargaming.

The project is currently in alpha testing by request (internal name: Project R3 ).
Another game developed by Wargaming’s Prague (Czech Republic) division. The game was first mentioned in February 2021. Testing is only taking place on the European client.

The game was noticed en masse by some European players in mid-June 2022 in the WGC EU launcher. At the same time, some EU players received an invitation by mail to the closed testing of Steel Hunters.

The game description reads:
“Steel Hunters” is a futuristic gladiator fight between giant robots – killing machines, the best creations of mankind. Feel the power overflowing each hunter while you make your “last fight” in the arena!

At the moment, the update 0.15 of the closed Alpha test has been released. This week, a new playtest was released and players who previously applied were able to try the game.

Interesting: almost all objects on the map are destroyed. The game is developed on the Unreal Engine 4 and is distributed via the Steam platform. However, when you launch the game on Steam, the WGC application still opens and you can even use existing WG accounts, but without access you cannot enter the game. It is unclear whether this is a temporary solution with WGC or it will be like this.

The trademark “STEEL HUNTERS” was first registered on March 19, 2021 by Wargaming net Limited.
