Seattle, WA (February 28, 2013) – Come and take your photo with a life--sized HAWKEN mech and brush up on your mech shooting skills at this year’s Emerald City Comic Con, March 1st-3rd. Meteor Entertainment and Adhesive Games bring the action--packed free--to--play first--person mech shooter back for its second year.

This year HAWKEN will be playable in booth 3005; Creative Director of Adhesive Games, Khang Le, will be joining CEO of Meteor Entertainment, Mark Long, and many other talented folks on a panel Saturday at 11AM in the Gaming Panel Room; the HAWKEN Art Attack Show will be viewable at Vermillion all weekend for those over 21 years of age (there will be drink specials with your ECCC lanyard); and artists and writers will be available throughout the weekend for signings.

For those who are attending Comic Con for the comics, the original graphic novel HAWKEN: GENESIS will be available for early purchase to attendees of ECCC. Be sure to stop by the HAWKEN booth, 3005, and the Archaia booth, 808, for signings by artist, Khang Le, and writer, Jeremy Barlow. Meteor Entertainment is also excited to launch its HAWKEN merchandise at ECCC with partner Mighty Fine/ We Love Fine. Mech T-shirts, bags, and more will be available for purchase at Meteor’s booth, 3005, and at Mighty Fine’s booth, 838. Not to worry for those who cannot attend ECCC, HAWKEN swag can be purchased online here: http://www.welovefine.com/296-hawken.

For a complete HAWKEN schedule, including signing times, during Emerald City Comic Con be sure to visit: www.playhawken.com/ECCC2013.

HAWKEN creates an intense and enjoyable battle experience that captures the feeling of piloting a heavy war machine while keeping the action fast--paced and strategic. The game brings the quality of a AAA title to the free--to-play sector. HAWKEN’s back--story will start to be revealed in the upcoming original graphic novel HAWKEN: GENESIS as a part of its transmedia approach. More components of the transmedia will be released in the future, revealing more and more of the HAWKEN story; who are these fighters and what are they fighting for?
