Overview
Gigantic was a free-to-play strategic third-person shooter video game developed by the independent game studio Motiga and published by Perfect World Entertainment. The game focused on team-based action combat with heroes battling alongside a massive guardian. Players must protect their guardian along with their team and attempt to destroy the opposing team and their guardian.
Developers had been talking about the game since 2013, codenamed "Raid" at the time. Gigantic was announced officially on July 15, 2014. Shortly after, on July 24 of the same year, the pre alpha began. The game's beta was launched in August 2015. Gigantic was fully released on Steam, Arc, Xbox One, and Windows 10 on July 20, 2017.
On January 31, 2018, it was announced that further development for Gigantic had ceased and that the game's servers would be discontinued on July 31, 2018, the day that Gigantic servers officially shut down. However, from October 5 to October 7, 2023, the servers were reopened in an invite only event that allowed players to play the game again, leading to speculation that the game may be revived in the future.
