Prerelease:Resistance: Fall of Man

This page details pre-release information and/or media for Resistance: Fall of Man.

Resistance: Fall of Man is the first entry in the Resistance franchise. The game takes place in an alternate timeline in which the Great Depression and World War II never happened. Instead, humanity got attacked by the Chimera, an alien race with unknown motivations and technology far superior to ours.

Unused Enemies

• The Traphunter was a cut enemy similar to the Leapers that already had a fully rendered model.

• According to artwork, the Kraken from Resistance 2 and 3 was originally going to appear in Fall of Man but was cut for unknown reasons.

Cut Levels

• The USS Lexington was supposed to be the first level of the game and served as a tutorial. The player would have learned about the Chimeran War while moving around the ship and doing weapon training. Ted Price stated that Insomniac could not get the level done in time and decided to cut it. Instead it became a Multiplayer map.
• Somerset was originally going to have a fourth level, in which Hale would have taken up the gun on top of the LU-P-LYNX while Cartwright would have driven the vehicle. It was a Railgun-Shooter Passage that was cut due to time restraints.

Cut Character

• R. Hadley was a character that was likely to appear in the USS Lexington Level but got cut with it. In the Resistance: Fall of Man inside Slip, Robert Atkin Downes is credited as his voice actor.

Cut Weapons

• In Grimsby there was supposed to be a Grapple-Gun, with which the player could have grabbed certain objects and moved them around, which explains the many explosive Power-Cores in this area. The gun was cut very late in development.
