According to JustPushStart, a select few members of the hardcore Warhawk community were recently called upon to sample what we’ve been calling Starhawk but which currently goes by the name of Warhawk 2.
Yep, it’s real.
Apparently nobody was allowed to take cameras into the event, but by the magic of human memory (and, presumably, a few torn up NDAs), a few details have emerged since. Namely:
- There’ll be a story mode
- Will feature co-op support
- Will support 32 players online
- Multiplayer will feature 25 maps
- The game will contain military vehicles (tanks, motorcycles, aircraft)
- Bunkers can be built for yourself, but are able to be destroyed by the enemy
- Improvements have been implemented for the combat system and camera angles
- The graphics have received a boost as well
Rumours are rumbling that the game will be released as part of Sony’s 2012 exclusive line-up.
We asked Sony for comment (and a copy of the demo) but got the usual “We do not comment on rumour or speculation” line, as expected.

Wasn’t this on a post about 2 days ago and got dismissed as ‘poo’ because it appeared on an untrustworthy site?

Not on the front page, just in forum chat. I personally thought it was poo because of the site (and the content to be fair) but turns out the source they got it from was true!

Has it been confirmed though, I still call it poo seeing as I haven’t seen an official source.

Taking their time with this, will have had 3 Uncharted games in the time its taken them to get the second Warhawk/Starhawk game out. Or something like that.

the original was a fantastic game, infact it was my second game I bought for the ps3. This is going to be great hopefully.

Needs… Warhawk… Numbah 2!
Warhawk was the best multiplayer game for me. No doubt that Warhawk 2 will surpass, hopefully and most likely it will!
