Then you'll want to get yourself a Delta Force: Hawk Ops test key. This allows you to dive in and try out its differing modes and see what all the hubbub is about.

Let's go over what you can do to gain access.

How to get a key or code to play the test of Delta Force: Hawk Ops

There are a few methods you can try to get a key. Unfortunately, they are all based on chance if you don't want to go to a probably sketchy website and buy one that someone is selling.

Request access through Steam

This is probably the most painless method, but you aren't guaranteed a spot. If you want to give it a go, just head to the Delta Force: Hawk Ops page on Steam.

Scroll down just a bit and you'll see a button that says "Request Access." Click on when logged in to your Steam account. If the developers decide to let more players in, and you are selected, you'll get an email letting you know that access has been granted.

Get a code through Twitch Drops

A Twitch Drops campaign has been running, delivering Delta Force: Hawk Ops keys. They happen in spurts, and provide a pool of key codes for players. If you complete the Twitch Drop requirement, but don't redeem your code in a timely manner, there is a chance they'll run out for this round.

Just watch a streamer with Drops Enabled that is playing the game. After a watch time of 60 minutes, claim your key in the Drops and Inventory section. Head to the game's website to create an account, redeem your key, and enjoy.

Discord

Obtain a Delta Force: Hawk Ops test key through an X or Discord giveaway

The last method available is by following the game's official X account or joining its Discord. Throughout the Alpha Test of Delta Force: Hawk Ops, they have been doing key giveaways.

Just look for an X post and follow the instructions. Or jump into the Discord and see when they are doing a giveaway, which they've dished out 1,000 winners per day since they launched this version.
