Item Description

Few early PlayStation games sold the console's 3D muscle as convincingly as Warhawk. SingleTrac and Sony Interactive Studios America built it around a VTOL gunship with full 360 degrees of flight control, so instead of riding a fixed track you hover, strafe, climb and wheel around the battlefield, choosing your own angle of attack. It reached North America in November 1995, during the console's first months on store shelves, and it looked and played like a preview of where home action games were headed.

The setup is gloriously '90s. A megalomaniac warlord named Kreel is menacing the world's nations, and as a pilot in an international strike force you take the fight to his armies, eventually learning that the secret behind his nearly invulnerable forces is Red Mercury, the substance that gives the game its full title, Warhawk: The Red Mercury Missions. Across six levels you face tanks, aircraft, massive fixed gun emplacements and futuristic robots, and in certain areas enemies keep respawning until you complete the objective, so lingering is never a good idea.

Your arsenal includes lock-on missiles, rockets, multi-fire swarmers and plasma cannons, and switching between them on the fly is half the fun. The structure is pure arcade. There are no save files, just a password after each completed level, and if your craft is shot down or you eject, it is repaired and sent back into the stage twice before the third loss ends the run. That tight, unforgiving loop keeps every sortie tense, and the controls, built for the original digital PlayStation pad, earned praise from critics for their precision.

Reviews at launch were glowing, with Electronic Gaming Monthly scoring it 9.125 out of 10, though some critics wished it were longer. The name lived on in Incognito Entertainment's multiplayer-only Warhawk for PlayStation 3 in 2007, and a version of the craft even turned up as the final boss in Twisted Metal: Black. Going back to the 1995 original shows where that legacy started: a compact, demanding shooter from the PlayStation's launch era that rewards a steady thumb and a good memory for passwords.

About the game

Warhawk, released as AirAssault in Japan, is a futuristic arcade-style flight-combat game where the player flies a VTOL aircraft. The player maneuvers with 360 degrees of flight control through six levels. Weapons include fire-off lock-ons, rockets, multi-fire swarmers, and plasma cannons. The game has no multiplayer capabilities and does not feature DualShock or analog controller support. There are no saving or loading features. Instead, a password is presented each time a level is completed. The game ends after its six levels are completed, or when the player's craft can no longer fly. This occurs if the craft takes heavy damage or the player ejects from their craft. The craft is teleported to base, repaired, and sent back to the stage for the first two times this happens; on the third time, the game ends. Enemies in the game vary from being tanks and aircraft to massive fixed gun emplacements and futuristic robots. In certain areas of the game, enemies continuously respawn to challenge the player until they swiftly complete the mission objective.
