  • Summary: After centuries spent slumbering in the bowels of the earth, the primordial beasts known as Titans have awoken. Now they must battle humanity - and one another - for total world dominance.

    GigaBash combines the chaos and creativity of titles like Power Stone, Super Smash Bros Ultimate and War of Monsters with the jaw-dropping scale of the classic kaiju movies. Play as either a rampaging Titan or a Titan-hunting mecha; summon lightning from the heavens, use a radio tower as a baton, or roll a whole district (and your enemies) into a single massive snowball. Wreak enough havoc and you'll evolve into your final form, the terrifyingly titanic S-Class.    … Expand

    I had an absolute blast with GigaBash. Despite this, solo players need not apply. There just isn’t enough content here to justify the investment. Still, that’s not who GigaBash was made for and for the target audience, Passion Republic Games have delivered. If you regularly have friends to play with, there are few games released this year I would say are more worthy of your time and money.

    GigaBash is a love letter to Kaiju cinema, assuming that a love letter can involve throwing buildings at each other. Raucous, entertaining, and brilliantly designed, GigaBash deserves to stomp its way into players' hearts around the globe.

    GigaBash is quite straightforward in what it proposes large-scale battles between monsters and other typical figures of the genre and offers very simple, but very satisfying systems. If, on the one hand, it offers little content to keep the single-player player engaged for a long time, it is in the shared fun (online or local) where the game reveals its great strength.

    While GigaBash's core gameplay systems of brawling are solid, everything surrounding that experience - the online component, content offerings, roster - are underwhelming when compared to contemporaries.

    In the end, GigaBash is a game that's loads of fun if you're playing with local friends. Even if you don't partake in the minigames, the combat is deeper than expected in a fighting game like this, so you'll spend more than a few rounds playing with others. It doesn't have much going for it if you choose to play solo or are trying to get online, but as long as you have a group ready for a get-together, GigaBash fits perfectly in a party-style rotation.

    If you put 40 meter tall monsters in a fully destructible environment and have them duke it out, you're in for a good time no matter what and this party game gets that stuff right. However, to really get the most out of GigaBash, you'll need a sofa full of mates to play it with.

    Whether Gigabash proves enduringly sticky enough to weather the wax and wane of the console’s fighting game community seems up to chance, and its prickly price tag isn’t doing it any favors. It’s not a Smash Bros. killer but has its own eccentricities and charm, even while begging for that franchise’s array of match-changing items or epic single-player modes; just a tournament mode or randomized match queue would be welcome. As it stands, it’s still a smooth and quirky kaiju brawler packed with cities and buildings to crush to dust.

    GigaBash brings back my childhood, reminds me of Godzilla, Transformers, Ultraman and great games like Rampage, Power stone, and War of theGigaBash brings back my childhood, reminds me of Godzilla, Transformers, Ultraman and great games like Rampage, Power stone, and War of the Monsters!

    The solo campaigns are great to play and we have tons of fun with friends on mayhem and couch mode, just can't stop playing it and we had a blast!

    Each character play different in its unique way, a clear homage to many classic Kaiju and Super Heroes, its easy to pick up and challenging to master, best for both party and competitive occasion!

    I also believe the game will unleash its full potential with more original and license characters added to the game.

    Pure joy of fun, this is a 10/10 game for me!    … Expand

    For someone that loved Power Stone and Tech Romancer, this game is really special.

    Simple and fun combat with a strategic element to it; varied arenas; destructible environments.

    Bad-
    Lackluster online matchmaking; minigames can't be played with friends; small roster of characters.

    Thoughts-
    In its current state, GigaBash is really something that would serve you well for a couple of hours as a fun time with friends, but nothing more than that. And that’s a shame because the core fundamentals are really fun, and with some major updates (both on the gameplay and content fronts) and better online infrastructure – GigaBash has the potential to turn into something special.    … Expand
