Starhawk

Starhawk is the Spiritual Successor to the online-multiplayer-only Warhawk, both of which are Playstation3 Exclusives. While still heavily focused on multiplayer, Starhawk features a single player campaign focusing on one Emmett Graves, a hired gun who was partially mutated by exposure to Rift energy. He finds himself fighting the Outcasts who don't have his special implants to mitigate their rift-induced transformation, worship Rift energy, and viciously attack those that try to mine it across the galaxy.

But, at least he has his friend, Cutter, to drop buildings down on the battlefield, as do players online. Players are given an entirely unsettled landscape to riddle with bunkers, turrets, barriers, and vehicle depots. The developers specifically wanted to capture the fast pacing of pulling a trigger on a gun when building an encampment.

The Official Trailer can be found here.
