Delta Force, previously known as Delta Force: Hawk Ops, is now open for pre-registration on iOS and Android. Launching in late January 2025, this Tencent title marks a significant entry into the modern military shooter market, blending diverse missions and modes with tactical gameplay.
The Delta Force franchise, a cornerstone of FPS gaming predating Call of Duty, is known for its realistic combat, advanced gadgets, and authentic weaponry. Tencent's Level Infinite has revitalized the series with impressive features. Expect large-scale warfare in the Battlefield-style Warfare mode, extraction-focused gameplay in Operations mode, and a captivating single-player campaign inspired by the Battle of Mogadishu (and the film Black Hawk Down) coming in 2025.
Addressing Cheating Concerns
Despite high anticipation, Delta Force has faced controversy regarding its approach to combating cheaters. Tencent's G.T.I. Security team, dedicated to anti-cheat measures, has implemented strict PC-based restrictions on certain software and hardware, leading to criticism. While the impact on the mobile version may be less severe, this controversy could still influence player perception. The reduced likelihood of cheating on mobile platforms, however, offers a potential path to meeting expectations.
