Gigantic: Gerettet – Konkurrent von Overwatch und Battleborn hat neuen Publisher

The MOBA Gigantic is now released by Perfect World after the developers had desperately searched for an investor.

At the beginning of the year, the developer studio Motiga announced, that they had to lay off some employees. They were struggling with financial issues, therefore they could not retain all employees. At that time, they were looking for investors to finish the hero shooter Gigantic. Now they have announced that they have entered into a partnership with Perfect World.

Gigantic will get even bigger

Through the cooperation, the developers are not only able to complete the game, but they can also release it on multiple platforms. They are currently working on a special 64-bit version, which will be released for the 64-bit versions of Windows via Perfect World’s platform Arc. Additionally, the game will also be available through the Windows Store on Windows 10 and for Xbox One. This way, they hope to reach as many potential players as possible.

Moreover, they are working on a range of improvements based on player feedback from the last beta of Gigantic. This includes adjustments to balancing, user-friendliness, service improvements, and the introduction of new content such as three new maps and new heroes. They also express gratitude to the loyal fans who even wanted to start a fundraising campaign to save Gigantic. They will now fully focus on delivering the best possible game, but they still have a lot to learn in the coming weeks.

Perfect World believes in the game

Perfect World is also excited about the partnership and describes Gigantic as a unique gaming experience. They believe in the game and want to make it accessible to as many gamers around the world as possible. In the game, two teams of five players each compete against each other on various maps. Each team has a powerful guardian that must be protected. The team that defeats the enemy guardian first wins. The exact release date of Gigantic is still not determined.

Gigantic, together with Paladins, Overwatch, and also Battleborn belongs to a new generation of so-called “hero shooters:”
