Renegades!
The GRAIL mission is approaching its end, as X-Isle will soon fade away. The MY.GAMES team has made the difficult decision to discontinue HAWKED’s services in the near future.
It was a great hunt, and we are grateful to every Renegade who joined the journey: exploring the jungles and ruins of X-Isle, chasing Caravans and Relics, solving puzzles and uncovering mysteries, battling VEKTR, and simply enjoying the adventure together.
We are closing this chapter to focus on new challenges ahead.
Starting March 11, all in-game purchases and payments will be disabled. Players will still be able to access and enjoy the game using existing content and previously acquired items.
The servers will remain fully operational until:
PC: June 9
Console: September 7
After these dates, the game and its online services will be permanently retired.
The current Renegade Pass will be extended until September 7. Additionally, every Renegade will receive free access to the Realities Pack upon logging into the game starting March 11. We have also unlocked the in-game shop contents for Hawks, so don’t miss your final chance to gear up before the expedition ends.
Thank you for being part of the hunt. We hope to see you again in other MY.GAMES adventures in the future.
