Cool Horror Videos: Pacific Rim video game trailer!

Last Updated on August 2, 2021

Guillermo del Toro’s PACIFIC RIM comes out today, as you’re most likely well aware, and so too does the video game based on the film. Want to know what it feels like to be a Jaeger beating the crap out of a Kaiju? Now you can!

Check out the trailer for the video game below; it’s a downloadable title for XBOX. Nab it HERE.

The plot:

When legions of monstrous creatures, known as Kaiju, started rising from the sea, a war began that would take millions of lives and consume humanity’s resources for years on end. To combat the giant Kaiju, a special type of weapon was devised: massive robots, called Jaegers, which are controlled simultaneously by two pilots whose minds are locked in a neural bridge. But even the Jaegers are proving nearly defenseless in the face of the relentless Kaiju. On the verge of defeat, the forces defending mankind have no choice but to turn to two unlikely heroes—a washed up former pilot (Charlie Hunnam) and an untested trainee (Rinko Kikuchi)—who are teamed to drive a legendary but seemingly obsolete Jaeger from the past. Together, they stand as mankind’s last hope against the mounting apocalypse.
