Delta Force: Hawk Ops is heading towards Battlefield.
Anyone who still knows Delta Force can look forward to a new entry in the long-running military shooter series that has been dormant for 15 years in 2024. In our trailer you can see a lot of game scenes that are supposed to whet the appetite for heated battles in the style of Battlefield.
Additionally, massive surprise hit Helldivers 2 is gearing up for its first content pack since release. And Vampire Survivors wins the Golden Flower Pot this week for their creative play with the past. These are our personal trailers of the week!

Finally content replenishment for Helldivers 2: New weapons and more revealed in the trailer
Enthusiastic crowds of players and smoking servers marked the release of Helldivers 2. The huge success of the co-op shooter surprised everyone, including the developers themselves. Now that the servers have been increased and stabilized, fans are now waiting for one thing above all: new content. And they are already on the way.
What exactly is emerging from the fog? In the trailer you can see, among other things, new weapons that will be integrated into the game as part of so-called war bonds. You can find out whether the game could be something for you and our verdict in the GameStar test for Helldivers 2.

Helicopters, tanks, landing craft: Delta Force is back and taking on Battlefield
The long break since the last series entry ends in 2024: With Delta Force Hawk Ops, the shooter series, which is over a quarter of a century old, presents itself in a graphically modern way. And what causes some raised eyebrows: It’s very much in the direction of Battlefield.
Hawk Ops relies on Free2Play and lets you compete against each other on large, partially destructible battlefields with tanks, helicopters and landing craft. In addition, the four soldier classes Assault, Sniper, Engineer and Medic are strongly reminiscent of the style of play that shaped Battlefield.

Vampire Survivors – This is what the trailer would have looked like if the Steam hit had been released in 1997
Ah, those were the times, when our hobby was still flickering in 4:3 format. In 1997, when kids with no money in their pockets stood in line for hours at the toy store to play Final Fantasy on the PlayStation on display. It’s exactly this nostalgia that Vampire Survivors wants to tap into in the trailer above.
And it works! You can see what the upside down Bullet Hell would have looked like if it had appeared before the turn of the millennium. Well, even if it had been developed by Squaresoft (now Square Enix) – the whole video is a loving reference to Final Fantasy 7.
