Who Is Hawks in STAR WARS Zero Company?
Learn Hawks' confirmed history, leadership role, and customization options in STAR WARS Zero Company.

Hawks is a former Galactic Republic officer who now leads Zero Company, an independent outfit of professionals for hire. The player defines Hawks’ identity and combat direction, while the campaign supplies the larger pursuit of Kundri Fathom and the Infinite Coil.
What Hawks does
Hawks is the link between The Den and the battlefield. At the Holotable, Hawks selects missions and Operations; in combat, the leader is one member of the operator roster rather than a detached menu avatar. That makes Hawks’ specialization and equipment part of the same squad decisions as every other operator.
How Hawks can be customized
Official material describes choices for species, appearance, voice, clothing, and combat specialization. You can use those options to fit a preferred role or story identity, then revise the setup in The Den. The official pages do not publish a fixed best build or guarantee that every field is available to every authored character.
What remains unknown
The launch articles do not provide a complete level-by-level stat table, exact unlock order, or universal optimal specialization. Treat those as current-game data to verify in your own menu. Sources: StarWars.com game page and EA overview, checked 2026-08-29.
