Pacific Rim Uprising: Hall of Heroes Contest & Enlist In The Jaegar Academy

Two “new” interactive elements of the promotional campaign for PACIFIC RIM UPRISING has come online, with an announcement of a “Hall of Heroes Contest” and a “Introduction” to the “Jaeger Academy” and asking folks to “sign-up”.

If the name “Pacific Rim Uprising” is unknown to you, go check out the trailer first, then come back, no worries, take your time :)

Sorted? Good.

First up, we take a look at actor John Boyega (who plays “Jake Pentacost” in the film) announcing the “Hall of Heroes Contest”. You can then enter via www.GoJaeger.com (Read Contest Rules here).
