Firefall
One week from now, after a lengthy time in development, we'll finally have our hands on Firefall, Red 5's free-to-play MMO shooter. In anticipation of the game's release, the studio unveiled two end-game monsters known as the Melding Titans, Baneclaw and Kanaloa the Destroyer.
The first of the giant enemies, Baneclaw, is a scarab who curls up and rolls around the battlefield to squash players. It also spawns smaller bugs known as hellclaw minions to distract its attackers.
Kanaloa, the lava worm featured in the trailer below, spits fire and swims through its magma pits to kick up molten rocks, hurling them at players as they try to avoid falling into their flame-filled doom. It has only a handful of vulnerable areas on its body, so players will have to coordinate carefully to defeat the beast.
Firefall launches July 29 for PC. For more, check out a previous trailer to learn about the game's setting and character classes.
