Ascension BattlePass

Welcome, Hunters!

Join the 10-Day Steel Hunters Playtest and Earn Exclusive Rewards!

Steel Hunters just premiered at The Game Awards, and to celebrate, we're hosting a 10-day Playtest from now until December 23 (09:00 UTC). Dive into the action and be among the first to experience our upcoming duo-hero shooter. Become part of Steel Hunters history!

Introducing the "Ascension" BattlePass

All players who join the Playtest will automatically receive the free "Ascension" BattlePass. Complete missions, earn BattlePass (BP) points, and unlock rewards—including the dazzling Rising Angel Skin for Heartbreaker, which you'll get to keep forever!

How Does It Work?

Get Started: The BattlePass is free and automatically available to all players during the Playtest.
Complete Missions: Earn BattlePass points by completing a variety of missions, including:

  • Dealing damage to enemy Hunters and Drones
  • Earning Shards
  • Destroying enemy Hunters
  • Spending Starfall
  • Earning MVP performance titles
  • Finishing in the top 2 teams
  • Playing battles

Earn Rewards: Every 100 BP points earns you a level and unlocks rewards like Constructs (used to unlock Hunters) or resources to speed up your progression. You can also earn Boosters to speed up your progress—add them to your arsenal by cracking open crates in the Vault menu on the Hangar screen!

Unlock the Rising Angel Skin: Reach Level 10 (1,000 BP points) to receive the exclusive Rising Angel Skin for Heartbreaker.

Missions and Progress

Season Missions: New missions unlock in the second week, starting December 19 (00:00 UTC). You can still complete any unfinished missions from the first week.

Keep Playing: After reaching Level 10, you can keep collecting BP points to unlock random rewards for each additional level you reach! You'll find them in the Vault on the Hangar screen.

Choose Your Hunter: While some missions require you to play as Heartbreaker, you're free to play any Hunter while completing the BattlePass.

Keep Your Exclusive Reward

After the Playtest, all account progress will be reset as we continue development; however, the Rising Angel Skin is yours to keep forever! Show off that you were among the first to join the hunt when the game officially launches.

Why "Ascension"?

The "Ascension" BattlePass is inspired by the transformative journey of Marisol Zamora. After the mysterious deaths of her father and brother, Marisol took control of her family's enterprise, later transforming it into The Syndicate—a powerful organization that uses its criminal influence to aid ordinary people, or so they claim.

An attempt on her life pushed Marisol to undergo emergency Hunter Genesis, emerging as Heartbreaker—a lethal force with newfound abilities. Now, she has her sights set on the battle for Starfall, ready to confront rival factions and protect her empire at any cost.

Her story of resilience and empowerment embodies the theme of ascension, making it the perfect inspiration for this BattlePass.
