Tencent’s Delta Force: Hawk Ops Aims to Dominate the Call of Duty Franchise with December PC Open Beta Launch

Delta Force: Hawk Ops is Coming to PC in Open Beta on December 5th

Get ready to gear up for the ultimate tactical first-person shooter experience, as Delta Force: Hawk Ops is launching its global open beta on December 5th, 2024. This free-to-play title from Tencent’s Timi Studio Group, the same creators of Call of Duty: Mobile, is poised to take on the likes of Call of Duty and Battlefield with its big multiplayer fireworks and free-roaming tactical engagements.

A New Era for the Delta Force Series

The Delta Force series has been around since 1998, with NovaLogic developing the original titles. Despite the series’ popularity, it was put on hold after NovaLogic’s closure in 2016. Thankfully, Tencent revived the series last year, with Timi Studio Group at the helm. Since then, the team has been working on reimagining the franchise for a new generation of gamers.

Global Open Beta and First Season

The global open beta marks the start of Delta Force: Hawk Ops’ initial release, featuring a full live-service content update with no progress resets. This means you can jump in and start playing with friends, exploring the game’s 32-player Havoc Warfare mode and Hazard Operations’ squad-based PvPvE. The game will also introduce new maps, modes, and operators, as well as new weapons and vehicles.

Paid Content and Anti-Cheat Measures

While paid content like Battle Passes, weapon appearances, and vehicle appearances will be available in the open beta, Tencent is committed to ensuring there will be no pay-to-win elements. The team is also working on new maps, modes, operators, weapons, and vehicles, as well as gameplay enhancements, improved performance, bug fixes, and anti-cheat measures to keep the game fair and enjoyable for all players.

Single-Player Campaign and Future Updates

The game’s third element, the Black Hawk Down-inspired single-player campaign, will arrive at a later date. As the game progresses, you can expect new maps, modes, operators, weapons, and vehicles to be added, along with gameplay enhancements and other improvements.

How to Play Delta Force: Hawk Ops

Delta Force: Hawk Ops will be available on PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store when the open beta launches on December 5th. PlayStation, Xbox, and mobile releases are expected to follow in Q1 2025.

What to Expect from the Game

According to Eurogamer contributor Rick Lane, "If Delta Force: Hawk Ops can provide a decent single-player experience, alongside its combination of big multiplayer fireworks and free-roaming tactical engagements, then Battlefield and Call of Duty could be in for a rather unpleasant surprise." With its unique gameplay blend and commitment to live-service updates, Delta Force: Hawk Ops is shaping up to be a force to be reckoned with in the world of first-person shooters.
