Sony Computer Entertainment has officially announced Starhawk, its upcoming space-themed follow-up to Warhawk that is set to redefine the third-person shooter genre.

 

Developed by LightBox Interactive, in collaboration with Sony Computer Entertainment Worldwide Studios' Santa Monica Studio, Starhawk promises to "provide fast paced third-person shooter action set in the lawless frontier of space allowing players to instantly alter the battlefield by calling down offensive and defensive structures in real-time from an orbiting drop ship, all while blasting away at enemies in the middle of huge single-player or multi-player firefights," reads the press release for the game.

"Our goal is always to innovate and provide fans with new, engaging experiences," said Scott A. Steinberg, Vice President, Product Marketing, SCEA.  "Starhawk delivers all of this and more combining a run-and-gun gameplay style with our advanced Build & Battle system that offers new strategic options for the player while never taking them out of the action.  Add to that a compelling story and robust online mode, and Starhawk will truly move the genre forward—an experience only enjoyed on PlayStation 3 that is sure to excite shooter fans and newcomers alike."

Starhawk is scheduled for release in 2012.

I'm not in favor of the whole dropping buildings out of no where it would be better if they just provide canvasas and we can create map layouts

I agree with you. That seems dumb and gimmicky. I don't want it. What sense does it make unless the buildings are for something like to provide weapons caches or machines to accomplish something. Maybe they are just failing to explain that, I hope.

it looked like some of the buildings were turrets. i'm thinking the buildings will serve as some function other than just walls. eg. spawning "spacehawks"? those mech-like planes look crazy bus

kinda reminds me of the first command and conquer games, which as we all know were brilliant.

I'm not into the whole "sci fi shooter" games but this looks too good to miss, and a massive step up from warhawk. I loved how they went with the "we wanted something different and really good" not just the usual "well COD's selling loads, we should copy it" that I have been seeing lately.

I just want to know what happens if a building drops on someone. I feel like that could be a major balancing issue.

i hope it kills them.

i think they will most likely incorporate some sort of killstreak thing for certain buildings.

I really loved the first one so I´m really looking forward to this one, really hope they give a release date at E3, perhaps Q2 2012 . . .

I'm Disapointed From The Warhawk Sequel, Warhawk Is My All Time Favorite Exclusive From The PlayStation 3, I Like How Warhawk Was Like Modern And A Bit Of Futuristic, But Completely Futuristic Is Not My Type, I Like Everything About Warhawk And Theres Nothing In Starwahk That Looks Nothing Similar To Warhawk Except That Is A 3rd Person Shooter Game....It Might Have It's Ground And Sky Battles, But It's Not The Same Anymore..... This Is A Disapointment, I'm Sticking With Warhawk :cry: :sad: :sigh: :-| ;-)

Not sure why, but hearing a lot of this about gun slingers and Frontier etc made my mind wander over to Firefly... :-) Which would rock as a matter of fact if done well like this looks like it is.

Looks like it should be fun for sure.

wow, Battlezone, much?

Forreal though, this game sounds promising. I just hope they don't take too much away from the original 6-axis aerial combat that made the first game so amazing. They're saying this is a third person shooter. That's fine, I just hope they're not trying to make another Gears. I mean, maybe they can make a find TPS, but I'd rather have the focus be on dogfights in space.
