Posted Fri, Jul 01, 2011 by Martuk

For months Red 5 has been working with a mysterious writer to bring the world of Firefall to life. That mysterious writer has now been revealed as science fiction author Orson Scott Card, who has authored novels that include Ender's Game, Ender's Shadow, and Speaker for the Dead. In the latest Firefall developer diary video, Red 5 Studios CEO Mark Kern offers a look at the races and story of Firefall and what Orson Scott Card is doing to help bring the world to life and give it a rich story.

Additionally, the Red 5 team is creating a Firefall manga novel with Card that will be available for free online. Check out the full video embed after the break
