Red 5 Studios has announced that the final closed beta of its sci-fi MMOFPS, Firefall, is now live. Players will have two final weeks of closed beta fun before the beginning of the open beta. In addition, during this final closed beta phase players will have the chance to play the Jetball a PvP competitive mode, and Blackwater Anomaly, the game's first story based-episode.

Blackwater Anomaly has been designed as an immersive, cooperative experience for five-person squads. Their mission: to investigate the anomaly that’s appeared in Blackwater Marsh, learn more about why the Chosen are here and try to unravel what, or who, is behind this attack on humanity.

Jetball is a new objective-based eSports mode where two teams of five players compete for victory by flying or shooting a high-tech ball through their opponent’s goal. Because players can’t defend themselves while carrying the ball, teams must rely on passing and coordination, strategically using each Battleframe’s unique weapons, abilities and maneuverability to score.
