As many pilots are aware, we will be distributing unique Alpha and Closed Beta mech camouflages to thank our loyal testers for their hard work during early development, which helped make HAWKEN the game it is today. The Limited Edition camos pictured below will be awarded later this month to players who participated in our Alpha and Closed Beta events. Eligible players will find the camos in the Style tab of their Garage and they will be usable on every mech they own.

If you were with us during those early days, we thank you for your support and hope that you will enjoy your gift. If you missed out on this special opportunity, don't despair! We're always looking for new ways to reward our loyal players so keep playing and keep an eye on these news posts for information on any future exclusives.

If you see someone wearing an Alpha or Closed Beta camo in-game later this month, be sure to salute them with a GLHF, That Just Happened, or The Pleasure Was All Mine mech taunt!

Nothing shows that you've been in Alpha more then a camo that says it repeatedly :o

I want that Alpha skin :( Does this mean we can expect account wide inventory at the same time, or would that be in the next content patch?

OT: that is a cool picture of a rocketeer :D

Great, I tried to do my happy dance before it was fixed, and now it is completely ruined! Now, thanks to these awesome camos, I will never dance out of sheer joy again.

Saturnine told me that people love assigning labels to others, but even this is pretty ridiculous.

I'm happy we finally get to see something and find out that we're going to get the skins soon, but I was hoping for something a little less... literal. But I'll use them nonetheless :B

Thanks! I hope I get my beta camo for only being in it for 40 minutes. (Stupid laptop) I wish I was here in alpha... stupid one core cpu laptop could run the dang thing. My second laptop didn't work until the very last minutes of closed beta...

For whatever reason, trying to comment through the article on the main page doesn't work, but here's my question, how are the camos for Alpha and Beta players determined? Is it a date system of when people signed up and logged in? I just can't remember if i actually played the last couple of days of Alpha or not, i'm pretty sure i did.

My scout will enjoy this until the release of wicked-brn. This may be a dumb question, but did we have to play a certain amount time in the alpha to get the camo or is it any alpha access means camo acquired? I ask since my memory of the alpha was a tutorial and playing a partial match while barely being able to move. The closed beta brought considerably better game stability so I could actually play.

If your account was approved during the game's Alpha then you will get the alpha skin regardless of how long you actually played.  At least that's what it sounds like they are doing.

I was hoping for the Vanguard emblems along with the text, but this is better than nothing. ;)

If your account was flagged for Alpha or Closed Beta access, it will receive the appropriate camos.
