Rumor: Peep the Warhawk game that might have been

by Xav de Matos on Apr 8th 2009 6:00PM

Resumé watchers Superannuation, spotted an interesting mention on concept artist John Duggan's profile: Concept art for a PlayStation Warhawk sequel. In his three-year stint (1996-1999) at Sony's (now-defunct) 989 Studios, Duggan worked on a number of unreleased projects, one of which was Warhawk 2.

Concept art listed on his profile (pictured above) paint a very different picture for the planned sequel's visual style in comparison to what eventually became Incognito's Warhawk on the PlayStation 3. Sure, Warhawk is a lot of fun now... but imagine if you could pimp into battle with a flying version of The Homer or Spider-style hawk that would make Jon Peters proud. Someone start a DLC petition, stat!

I always wondered about the Warhawk that could have been :(

Well well....I'm actually curious if Warhawk 2 will come out in the next year or 2....or if they will ever do a Warhawk 2 for that matter

I think this concept art is for "Warhawk 2" as in the sequel to Warhawk on the PS1.

Anyways, the true sequel to Warhawk will come. It is one of the most successful PS3 multiplayer games to date, and THE most successful game run by Jobe. I just hope that they don't rush it and take their sweet time. I want a game that is truly different and better than Warhawk, not a quick setting-change and repackage to make money. I'm talking FF9 to FF10, not GoW1 to GoW2, ya dig?

@ SGP

i would be happy for that IF they managed to get rid of the spawn raping.

I demand Warhawk 2. Or, at least, a new expansion and patch combo. (Plus make the current three expansions free - I already have them, but there isn't enough people to play with them.)

Looks a bit ugly if you ask me.

Looks like something you would see in Jak 2/3

Totally agree.

Warhawk for PS1 was such an awesome game, and I was pissed to find out they axed the single player. Especially after knowing they had single player working for a while before they axed it. The multiplayer seemed OK, but I could never get into it. I sucked pretty hard with everything except no vehicle mode - which defeated half the purpose!

I haven't played it for months! Kind of forgot about it, Can i have APCs, Dropships and Jetpacks in the SAME game yet?

warhawk is a really nice game...too bad the people who actually bought it are severely outnumbered by the ones who play the demo. i love the demo and all, but it's reducing the number of people who have all the maps and want to play something else apart from CTF on island outpost...

I didn't buy the game due to that reason.
