Starhawk is a 2012 third-person shooter video game developed by LightBox Interactive and published by Sony Computer Entertainment for the PlayStation 3.

The Outcasts, protective of the Rift Energy, attacked Rifter mining sites, including an outpost on the broken planet of Sever, owned by brothers Emmett and Logan Graves.

In the small town of White Sands on the planet of Dust, Mayor Jonas asks for Emmett and Cutter’s help to protect the town from an upcoming attack by the Outcast while they fulfill their rift energy quota for the Union, the main authority in the Outer Spur.

Emmett and Cutter discover that the citizens of White Sands were taken prisoners by the Outlaw to a nearby moon to be converted into Outcasts.

Emmett, Cutter, and the remaining White Sands folks are able to defeat the attacking Outcasts, but Jonas is killed in the battle.

Emmett defeats the entity, and Cutter places a rig on top of the Rift Energy source on Sever.

In March 2009, Kotaku received unofficial word that the newly created LightBox Interactive was developing a sequel to Warhawk.

Further the latest issue of Official PlayStation Magazine speculated in its rumour column that the PS3 exclusive flight-sim would feature "a story-driven campaign with full co-op support".

[11] Further Dylan Jobe revealed the game will support split screen play, but not PlayStation Move.

From 2010 to 2012 they were engaged in a multi-year, multi-title partnership with Sony Computer Entertainment of America developing games for all the PlayStation family of platforms.

They claimed to be moving to iOS game development, but as of February 15, 2019, no titles have been released nor any news, and LightBox Interactive can be considered defunct.

Those who pre-ordered Starhawk through GameStop automatically upgraded to the Limited Edition of the game at no extra cost.

The Limited Edition features two DLC packs containing new maps and multiplayer skins, a custom PS3 theme, the soundtrack and a PSN download code for the original Warhawk released on PSone.

The winner of the challenge received a copy of the game signed by Dylan Jobe, the president of LightBox Interactive.

A selected number of players who had opted-in to receive PlayStation emails on the game's official site and who had played Warhawk were invited to the beta test.
