Meet the Pilots and the Jaegers from Pacific Rim Uprising

Since the Kaiju tide became a major threat to humanity in 2014, the brave men and women of the Pan Pacific Defense Corps have stood sentry against their quest for world domination.

Cailee Spaeny, John Boyega, Scott EastwoodAmara Namani (Cailee Spaeny)
At just 15 years-old, Amara is still recovering from a tragedy from the first Kaiju invasion. While living in the slums, she becomes a self-taught Jaeger engineer and pilot, creating her own Jaeger named Scrapper and eventually joining the coalition to fight for humanity.

 

While the pilots are the brains behind the coalition, they couldn’t do it without their weapons; the Jaegers. Jaegers are 25-story tall robots that are powered by two human pilots. They are driven by precise human movement and precise partner telepathy. Equipped with the most advanced combat technology ever created, Jaegers were created to fight back against the world’s biggest and strongest threats. Pacific Rim Uprising introduces a new class of Jaegers that are more powerful and high-tech than ever before.

Gipsy Avenger: Gipsy Avenger is a new Jaeger that honors the heroic legacy of her namesake as the flagship leader of the original fleet (Gypsy Danger). More than just a Jaeger, she is a symbol of hope to millions.

 

Saber Athena: The sleekest and most elegant Jaeger ever created, Saber Athena is the fastest in the fleet, wielding twin blades in hyper-acrobatic combat.

 

Bracer Phoenix: An original Jaeger that can still keep up with any new robot, Bracer Phoenix shoots from the chest, with a centrifugal vortex cannon that is as spectacular as it is deadly…

 

Titan Redeemer: Built for brute force and armed with a seismic morningstar, Titan Redeemer is the walking wrecking ball of the new fleet.

 

Guardian Bravo: Designed for combat at range, Guardian Bravo wields the electric whip and brings a new sophistication to the whiplash move.
