There have been multiple betas, and the full release date is still some way off, but today Motiga’s Gigantic has arrived as a full-on Xbox One and Win10 Game Preview title. But that’s not the only news, as details regarding the ‘Founders Pack’ have also surfaced.
A free-to-play title Gigantic pits teams of five heroes and their huge Guardian friends against each other in a battle to the death. It comes with no less than 16 heroes to master and a huge variety of beautifully created maps. There is still currently no cemented release date, but thanks to the Xbox Game Preview feature, those who wish to test the game, helping the developers out in the process can do so.
The Xbox Games Store will be able to sort you out with that one.
But that’s not all as whilst free-to-play, really does mean free to play, there will also be a Founder’s Pack available to purchase. For $39.99, this brings you all 16 original heroes plus four new ones at a later date, some Limited Edition skins and a couple of exclusive Founder’s profile icons. If you like the look of Gigantic and wish to go as deep as humanly possible, then this Founder’s Pack is surely the way forward.
It will include:
- 16 Original Heroes
- 4 New Heroes (Released at a later date)
- 2 Limited-Edition “Imperial” Skins for Tyto the Swift and Charnok
- 2 Exclusive Founder’s Profile Icons
Of course, we’ll be sure to bring you our thoughts on how Gigantic works via the Game Preview program, and that will be followed up by a full review once that release date appears. For now though, go give Motiga a hand and help them shape Gigantic’s future.
