A Steam Listing reveals plans for HAWKEN REBORN, a return to the first-person mech shooter that shut down in 2017. Those interested won't have to wait long, as it carries a May 2023 Early Access release date. For now, here's the Reveal Trailer and the description:

Welcome to the world of Illal, a planet once thought to be humanity's future utopia, turned into a grim dystopia driven by corporate corruption and greed. Illicit terraforming poisoned the atmosphere and a terrible accident gave birth to the “Giga,” a nanite plague that ravaged half the planet.

Become a mercenary pilot, pitting your mech against the dangers of Illal, gaining fame, fortune, and resources to reach the truth behind its bodyguard of lies.

A New Way to Play
Experience a brand new Player vs Environment (PVE) experience in the Hawken Universe as you fight through the dystopic lands of Illal against warring factions, greedy corporations, and even more deadly adversaries.

Original devs were great, but game stagnated due to money management problems. After 505 Games took over from the original devs, game balance went downhill fast as they ported the game to consoles and tried to go pay-to-win; massively nerfed old mechs, overpowered real-money-only new mechs. They thanked the PC gamers for sticking around for years by shutting down the PC servers but keeping the console servers up. I spent over 1000 hrs on Steam + pre-Steam days, lots of good times, but I don't have much faith in 505 Games. Noticed this new game has no multiplayer, only 5 mechs, only 6 maps.

Sigh.
