NetEase Games has officially confirmed that Hawkeye will join the roster of playable heroes in their upcoming title. The Marvel Comics icon’s inclusion was first hinted at through subtle teasers in recent Moon Knight gameplay. Wearing a sleekly designed face mask, this character’s visual appearance stands out as one of the most stylish in the world of video games. Here are some of his notable skills and characteristics that make him stand out:
As a skilled Duelist, Hawkeye thrives in mid-range battles, expertly maneuvering to charge up shots and inflict substantial damage with precision headshots. While he’s capable of conjuring a barrage of explosive images to shut down opponents, the true threat lies in his possession of a katana – a subtle homage to Ronin. It was capable of deflecting bullets with varying degrees of success and knocking enemies back, often sending them flying off the map.
During the initial concept stages, Hawkeye’s appearance seemed to blend characteristics from both Genji and Hanzo; he remained a single character throughout this process. Notwithstanding, his Final has a unique property, generating ghostly silhouettes of rival heroes that he can use as targets for his attacks. While the results remain uncertain, stay informed for further updates to come.
debuts on December 6th for Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 5, and PC. At launch, the game will provide players with access to a diverse roster of 33 Heroes, as well as eight distinct maps. Five more remain to be unveiled with Hawkeye’s disclosure. Examine the additional details on post-launch strategies and seasonal updates.
