Warhawk is a multiplayer-only third-person shooter first released in 2007 on the PS3. 13 years later, despite many hurdles, it remains loyally and regularly played. Even when the official servers were finally shut down, the community found a way to keep playing together first using an app called Warhawk Reborn, and now through PSONE.

This longevity is possible because Warhawk is incredibly well-balanced and, put simply, fun. Additionally, for many players this game holds many fond memories and continues to be regularly enjoyed. On a personal note, Warhawk is an important bonding activity with my family, especially while living many miles apart.

Remastering Warhawk for the PS5 would ensure players can keep enjoying this classic game for years to come. The cost of remastering for the PS5 would be negligible compared to normal game development expenses, and Warhawk’s longevity and marketability are already proven quantities. Retaining a group of dedicated fans, and giving new players access to a PlayStation classic, would obviously have enough benefit and profit to outweigh any costs.

So hey, help us get one of the PlayStation series’ greatest online success stories to a new generation! And in the meantime, if you haven’t logged on in a while, or maybe haven’t even played before, check out PSONE and join the chaos for a round or two (ranked servers are up!)
