Latest Pacific Rim image introduces you to the remains of the first Kaiju

Last Updated on August 5, 2021

We’ve seen Kaiju imprints and we’ve seen Kaiju crap, and now we’re seeing a Kaiju corpse. The PACIFIC RIM Facebook page has been kind enough to share a glimpse of “the first Kaiju”, whose name is – was – Trespasser. Here we see the remains of the dearly departed Trespasser as they’re shipped via aircraft carrier to an unknown destination.

The Facebook caption also notes that the Kaiju was responsible for the deaths of hundred of thousands.

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.

Some more Kaiju bones can be seen below. PACIFIC RIM opens on July 12th.
