Gigapocalypse Soon
This year is shaping up to be a good one for fans of kaiju games. First the fantastic Dawn of the Monsters was released by 13AM Games and WayForward. Later on, Passion Republic Games is bringing us a multiplayer romp in GigaBash. And on June 2nd, Gigapocalypse is coming to the following consoles – Nintendo Switch, PS4 and Xbox One, on top of being already available on Steam.
Developed by Goody Gameworks and published by Headup Games, Gigapocalypse is a mix of Rampage, sim games and even a little tower defense. You raise tiny Gigas, teaching them powerful techniques and evolve them into more dangerous new forms. Then you unleash them on towns, earn mutation points, and rinse and repeat. You’ll travel through time with 9 different Gigas, and fight against powerful and strange bosses. All of this is complemented by attractive pixel artwork and a pumping soundtrack.
If you’re not familiar with the people behind the game, here’s what Goody Gameworks had to say about their upcoming monster mash:
“It’s been great to see the positive reactions to Gigapocalypse as we’ve added more and more to it throughout the game’s time in Early Access on PC,” said developer Goody Pundit. “With the many updates and improvements we’ve made, the game is better than ever and I hope console players are looking forward to picking a Giga and laying waste to everything in front of them!”
