Firefall
After a long development cycle, Red 5's free-to-play MMO/shooter hybrid is finally available. Anyone with a Steam account and working PC can download it today.
Firefall maintains the classic tropes of MMOs (quests, skills, PvP, customizable characters) and places you on a future Earth. Your quest? To destroy the Chosen, an evil race of humanoids bent on destroying what's left of humanity. The game also promises certain elements of procedurally-generated content as well.
We had a chance to play a bit of Firefall last year. You can reach our impressions here. The game has undergone some changes since then, however.
Firefall launched yesterday, July 29, on PC. You can find the game on Steam.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
