The cinematic reveal trailer for State of Survival‘s Pacific Rim collaboration showcases the power Kaiju hold and their influence over the world’s zombies. Giant Jaegers shown in the footage show off their raw power, and set the stage for epic encounters in-game that Pacific Rim fans will enjoy. The overall scale of combat will change drastically with this event, meaning players’ strategies will have to evolve with it.
While Jaegers and Kaiju have a somewhat level playing field when it comes to size, zombies being added into the equation shifts this power balance. Players will need to manage their defensive tactics against on-the-ground hordes while simultaneously dealing with giant monsters. The trailer showed off some seriously impressive moves from both Jaegers and Kaiju, which both have the potential to leave great destruction in their wake.

High-Powered Combat & Exciting Pacific Rim Rewards
There have been many fun State of Survival collaborations in the past, but this one holds particular promise when it comes to changing gameplay. The event will have three different ways to fight: Base Defense Mode, which centers on utilizing Striker Eureka to fend off the undead, Roguelike Mode, where players can participate in tough battles with either Jaeger to earn rewards, and Boss Battle Mode, which features both a single player fight against Obsidian Fury and multiplayer option against Knifehead. Alongside new combat, players will also have a myriad of special items they can earn.
Some special items can be earned simply through signing in or a spin of the Lucky Wheel, while others, like a new Pacific Rim-themed card collection, will need to be earned. There are several skins and decor available for purchase as well, like Hero Statues and HQ Skins. With so many different ways to fight, this unexpected Pacific Rim collaboration makes State of Survival take on a more epic scale than ever before.
