Firefall Overview and Recent Content
Firefall is an upcoming free-to-play MMOFPS, with highly stylized artwork and an emphasis on tactical combat. Players step about two hundred years in the future, and into The Melding, a ferocious energy storm that has engulfed Earth. An evil alien race called The Chosen arrived around the same time that humans discovered crystite, a new energy source now being used to power the battleframes employed to fight The Chosen. Firefall is set to have PvE and PvP play, across a virtual game world spanning some ten square miles. Request your beta access over at the main website now!
FEATURES
- Battleframes | Assault (soldier role), Medic (healer role), Engineer (support role), Recon (sniper role), Dreadnaught (tank role).
- Creatures | Aranhas, small predators resembling a cross between a spider and a scarab; Brontodons, giant roaming herbivores with tusks and dorsal spikes.
- Environments | Dredge, the primary excavation site for crystite; Smokestack Desert, the intensely hot region of Melding-created flora and fauna.
