Developer Team Jade revealed the official date for the alpha test of its upcoming game, Delta Force: Hawk Ops, as July 18, 2024, for PC players.
Despite the announcement of the start date for the alpha test, the developer did not tell players about an end date. This suggests that it will be a "play it by ear" type of situation for Team Jade, who will monitor the situation as it progresses.

On top of the announcement of the alpha test date, the developer released a new CG trailer that was also released for the game. in the official description, it said, "Get hyped with our new CG trailer, featuring G.T.I. operators utilizing their unique strengths to complete their mission successfully."
But while the date for the alpha test for Delta Force: Hawk Ops has been revealed, what it actually includes has not yet been confirmed. It is also still a big question mark if it will give players a glimpse at the full game or just specific areas, according to Insider Gaming.
Players are expecting that the developer will reveal all of this information in the next couple of weeks. Also, people who want to get a chance to play Delta Force: Hawk Ops' alpha test can sign up on the game's website.
Delta Force: Hawk Ops was first revealed during the Summer Game Fest and generated major hype for the upcoming tactical shooter. On top of showcasing some gameplay modes, the trailer also revealed that the game includes a remastered version of Delta Force: Black Hawk Down which was released in 2003.

The inclusion of the remaster of the fan-favorite title in the franchise is expected to be welcome news for fans of both the series and the acclaimed Ridley Scott film. Additionally, it could also offer a unique set of challenges for the game's developer.
This is because of the differences between the two games, where Delta Force: Hawk Ops focuses on fun first and foremost. On the other hand, Delta Force: Black Hawk Down will try to live up to the legacy of the original game as well as the movie that was its inspiration, said GameRant.
Delivering on Player Expectations
What this means is that any scene that is lifted directly from Black Hawk Down will be subjected to increased scrutiny by fans of the movie. Furthermore, they will most likely be looking out for any inaccuracies.
On top of trying to please fans, Team Jade also needs to be careful of balancing the way of making the mode fun to play while also respectfully depicting the real-world events that it was based on.
Team Jade also shared a Delta Force: Hawk Ops Mobile gameplay trailer that featured exciting visuals, gameplay mechanics, and player interactions. All of the factors combined give the game the potential to be one of the most well-received mobile phone titles in recent times.
Ahead of its alpha test, Delta Force: Hawk Ops already has more than 100,000 wishlists on Steam. While the gameplay may seem slow and similar to other games at the beginning on mobile, there is a burst of action and a complete change of pace later on in the trailer, according to Sportskeeda.
