State of Survival X Pacific Rim Collaboration
FunPlus aims to bring new gameplay mechanics, events, skins and the iconic Gipsy Avenger to the roguelike mode of the multiplatform strategy game
Greater Zurich Area, Switzerland – FunPlus has launched collaboration with Legendary Entertainment’s Pacific Rim franchise.
The collaboration will bring the iconic Jaegers and Kaiju to the post-apocalyptic world of State of Survival. The top multiplatform strategy game is teaming up with Pacific Rim Uprising and Pacific Rim The Black to bring players an epic new adventure set in a world on the brink of apocalypse. Starting today, this thrilling crossover event will plunge players into a thrilling battle against the forces of destruction.
Triggered by the zombie virus, the world of State of Survival has attracted the attention of the enigmatic Precursors. Exploiting wormholes to breach our universe, they unleash the monstrous Kaiju, Knifehead, and Obsidian Fury upon the settlements. With their secondary brains releasing pheromones that enslave the zombie hordes, the threat grows ever more dire. Knowing the catastrophic consequences should these creatures manage to seize control of another Earth in a parallel universe, the Pan Pacific Defense Corps (PPDC) sends two Jaegers, Striker Eureka, and Gipsy Avenger, through the wormhole to aid the heroes in the world of State of Survival. Joining forces with iconic heroes like Sarge and Becca, these freshly landed Jaegers embark on a riveting new adventure to save humanity from total annihilation.
