Whatever Tabytha is planning seems to be working, as VEKTR’s operation on X-Isle has scaled down significantly. But they’ll certainly be back, so let’s gather as much intel from X-Isle as possible! 

The Glyphs scattered throughout X-Isle contain many secrets about the island’s history and its treasures. GRAIL has tasked us with collecting 250,000 Glyphs and will reward everyone with 2,000 Wonderium and 50,000 Hawks if we fulfill the bounty within a week.

As for the top-performing Renegade; a special reward of 75€ Store Credit awaits you. What’s treasure hunting without a little bit of luck, right?

[h3]What are Bounties?[/h3]
Bounties are a new weekly challenge system in HAWKED. Keep an eye on the official website and social channels to take on the latest Bounty, then play HAWKED, work together as a community, and smash the objective within the time limit to get an exclusive reward.

If the objective is reached, Bounties will be awarded to all Renegades who fulfill the following criteria:

• Clicked “PARTICIPATE NOW” on the Bounties hub.
• Logged in and played at least one match in HAWKED during the Bounty period. 

Bounties vary by difficulty. While one Bounty might be a breeze, certain Bounties need an extra push to nail the objective. 

Special Golden Bounties, including physical and real-world prizes, may also be awarded to top bounty hunters and random Renegades, so check back often for opportunities to win big prizes.

Visit the Shop to find an even wider collection of Cosmetics, stop by the lower deck of the Riftwake and chat with GE-0 or access it via the navigation menu.

[Incoming Transmission: Tabytha Rasa] VEKTR's heaviest hitters are the DELTA units. For our upcoming counter-attack, we need as few of them on the field as possible. Time to fill the scrap heap, Renegade.

Tabytha has decided to hit VEKTR where it hurts by asking Renegades to defeat 25,000 of its DELTA units. If this Bounty is completed, every Renegade will receive an exclusive Power Drill Weapon Skin for the Mazzikin. 

Since this week’s Bounty is rather tough, the Golden Bounty for one top-performing Renegade and one very lucky random Renegade will be their choice of either a Steam Deck 1TB OLED OR Nvidia RTX 4070 graphics card OR AMD RX 7800 XT graphics card. 

DELTAs have been wreaking havoc on X-Isle ever since the arrival of VEKTR. their numbers.
