The upcoming, free 1.5 patch for PlayStation 3 shooter Warhawk will make life a bit easier for the newbie population.

Key to the game's additions (revealed by Warhawk director Dylan Jobe) is a tutorial mode designed to ease new players into the shooter. Previously, new Warhawk fans were dumped unceremoniously into the game's online combat without so much as a "good luck."

Along with the tutorial missions, the patch gives Warhawk support for custom soundtracks, new paint schemes and a full complement of trophies -- 56 in all.

Warhawk's 1.5 patch should hit the PlayStation Network on August 27.

The Warhawk v1.5 patch will include the much anticipated trophy support with over 50 trophies available to collect for tasks such as playing the perfect deathmatch (1st place and with no deaths), hosting a game for 4 hours, and using a tank to shoot down Warhawks. Some trophies will require the booster packs but to get a platinum trophy you just need to get all 44 of the basic Warhawk trophies, you do not need to buy the booster packs to get the platinum trophy.

Other additions in the 1.5 patch include: Custom soundtracks, new paint/insignia schemes, and tutorial missions to help ease people into the game.

Warhawk V1.5 patch will be available to download on August 27th.

Also, a little bit about trophies in the upcoming 1.5 update:

I need to talk about the v1.5 Update, specifically the Trophies. Here’s a quick breakdown of the 56 Warhawk Trophies:

There are 10 trophies based on current stats, ranks and awards and these 10 *ARE* retroactive. This is largely due to the fact that we have this data stored on our global Warhawk Server Cluster. There are 34 other Trophies that are entirely new ‘goals’ and should provide players with plenty of new challenges. And yes, Operation: Omega Dawn, Operation: Broken Mirror, and possibly a new something have new Trophies as well. Each booster pack has an additional 4 unique Trophies.

To earn the Warhawk Platinum Trophy, all you have to do is unlock the base game’s 44 Trophies…you do *NOT* have to buy any DLC to unlock the Platinum Warhawk Trophy. Forcing players to buy our DLC would be super-craptastic and completely unacceptable.
