We’ve seen quite a bit of footage of Hawken in action so far, but Adhesive send word that their first true teaser trailer for the beautiful mech-combat game has arrived, and you can see it below.

Absolutely incredible stuff. Thanks to RPS reader Christopher “The World Wide” Webb for sending this in.
