If we want the game to succeed we need to tell everyone about it. We can market the game by word of mouth

This game was ahead of its time back in the day. I was so hyped for this game, but when it got shut down, it was actually sad.

One thing that makes me feel positive about the future of the game is that it looks like on steam they sent out about conservatively around 4k - 5k invitations for the playtest and it consistently hovered around 3k players throughout the entire playtest. A few factors to consider is that the playtest took place on weekdays where most people are at work/school, so staying at 3k during the playtest is incredibly impressive.

I'm also an OG player. Was also in the playtest. I am soooo glad this game's getting a Second Wind. I hope that your video (first I've heard of ya) and other big channels can help promote this game and give it the life it deserves!

i feel like I've grown up watching raynday. i remember when my friend had a crush on you when we watched the paladins patch note videos. i missed gigantic and im happy rayn is the one to bring the news 🙏

I honestly think the most likely thing here is that this game won't actually get much in the way of updates: They've said they're doing post-launch support, but they won't be able to keep that up forever without Microtransactions. We're getting a fully finished arena shooter with 25 characters, a suite of maps, and some fun skins to equip, fully finished, and using any steady trickle of new incoming players to keep the servers running and fund a little maintenance/bugfixes here and there. IF this game does well enough (I don't know what 'well enough' looks like on the financials side of this, but if Gearbox gets convinced that there's a dedicated playerbase that will support the game long term), then they keep the servers on for this game, and start development on Gigantic 2, which comes out in a few years, totally free to play, with new heroes, new maps, new game modes, updated systems/backend to run on modern machines, and the typical suite of Microtransactions we're used to with these kind of games. One big thing holding this game back is that it was developed in Unreal Engine 3, and it was made SEVEN YEARS ago. Back then, 60fps was all anyone was ever looking for, so this game is capped at that, with a lot of things in the physics engine tied to framerate so if you forcibly uncap the framerate, things start getting wonky. You can't just 'uncap' the FPS on this kind of game without rewriting a LOT of the game's code and doing a shitload of bugfixing, and all of this would be getting done in a VERY old engine that was notoriously unfriendly and annoying to work with even back when it was the newest one on the market. Tons of issues like this, from the lighting to the physics to the UI would need to be updated to current standards in order for this game to have any sort of longevity, and at that point you might as well make a new game. If Gearbox is smart, that's exactly what they'll do, and use this relaunch with the fixed 20$ price point to foster and cultivate a community to bring into the new one when it's ready.

Lets go! Gigantic needs all the love it can get

Can’t wait to play my fav game of all time on April 9th🤙🏻

I loved this game when it was first out, and played it a lot. I'm looking forward to playing it again. I still play hero shooters, mostly PvZ:GW2 with a little Paladins, as I quit OW years ago and TF2 has bot issues. We'll see how this goes, but with some of the QoL changes and a low price tag, it should do well.

I never thought I'd see this game again... I was just thinking about it the other day! Can't wait to get back into it

Already knew Rayn was the GOAT but now covering GIGANTIC puts him over the top

I really hope Gigantic coming back is going to open the door for Battleborn to come back!!!

Thank you so much for showing this game off. It is the best new genre I've experienced and I missed it when it was gone. This game DESERVES this comeback. And at an even better time where it's fresh and new vs the overwatch debacle. I am so happy for its return and get back on a team for the tourneys to come

i wanted to play this game so bad and it shut down as soon as i got a PC. i was heartbroken, im so so happy

This game is new to me and I LOVE the look of the art style and character variety. There's so much personality to it. The tiny wizard guy is pretty much exactly what I've always wanted in a hero shooter, and the blue... bear(?) is so cute. I'll definitely be picking this up.

Glad to see the resurgence, hopefully it sees more success this time around!

AYYYY Raynday! Haven't seen your content in ages! Not since the SMITE and early Paladins days. Awesome to see you covering the return of Gigantic! 🤘

I MISSED THIS GAME SOOO MUCCHH

Thank you very much for speaking about this game

Best moba I've played, such a great game

Man I played the hell out of Gigantic on Xbox. Really glad it's coming back.

One of my favourite games

I have fond memories of this game. Good times.

I didnt even know of this games existence prior to last week, but I think this game has an opening rn in the current environment. Ill certainly be playing. I prefer entry price tags for comp games as its the best way to prevent cheating

I still have the og downloaded on my console and I never forgot about it. Every year me and my friends would reminisce the game and when I heard that the game was returning I couldn’t believe it. I’m so happy that this game is making a comeback and I hope it gets the love it deserves

I'm so sad I never heard of Gigantic before! It looks so cool! I've been playing League for over 10 years, Overwatch since beta, and dabbled in the HI-Rez games. I'm so excited to check this game out it seems right up my alley! My only worry for it is it's releasing the same day as the new Overwatch hero, which usually gets a ton of hype and people playing. So I hope it doesn't get overshadowed by that!

It’s honestly up to the fanbase to spread the news of this game through word of mouth, if we all get at least 1-2 friends into it then it makes a huge difference

I played Battleborn from beta stage until the servers went down. I had over 2000 hours playtime. It easily became my favorite game of all time. ARK is my close second at 1200 hours. I will try Gigantic and hopefully makes me miss Battleborn less.

RAYNDAYYYYYY Feels like seeing an old friend after a long time, loved your stuff with Paladins, keep up the good work king👑

I know for a fact many of us overwatch veterans are looking for a new hero shooter. The overwatch devs have made so many poor changes, don't understand balance, and ignore community members who do. We're all just fed up. Overwatch is not what it used to be. Gigantic is looking really fun! I'm excited to play it.

Im thirsting for this game Gigantic was my favorite game I bought the founders edition for 3 of my friends to try to keep the game alive im buying this game for friend but Gigantic,Smite 2,and No Rest For The Wicked my 2024 is complete I dont need any other games lets go

I loved Gigantic and it was a really sad day when it died. I'm so glad it has come back!

you deff worded this better then i have~ lol nice video

I played gigantic daily back when it released in 2018, I've been waiting for the game to come back for so long, if u haven't given this game a try please do so, it is very very fun and is definitely worth the 20$, cannot wait for gigantics return

I’ve never seen this game but it looks cool! 😎

Lets go I saw this game on youtube after it had died and I was so sad that I missed it I am so hyped to play it

i remember watching your vids when gigantic came out man i have never been so happy for a game to come back

I remember this game, i played it before it was shut down back then . It was fun, I'm glad they are back.

dude what camera do you use to record videos? the quality is dope!!

Oh this game was fire 🔥 great to see it coming back

I didn't even know he was still doing content last time I remember was when he was doing smite. I love both gigantic and smite so much glad to see gigantic content

I never played this but I loved Battleborn and Bleeding Edge!

I didn't get to try it the first time, now i'm deffinitelly playing it

I'm so happy they are bringing this game back, I had so much fun before and was sad when they shut it down. I am excited!

I am gonna play it and buy it on all platform. Steam, ps, xbox. And i am telling all my friends ab it. It was an amazing game.

I enjoyed this game a lot. I'm glad to here it coming back out so excited.

Oh I remember briefly playing this game now it was super fun then just gone

I used to watch content for this game but never rly tried it in its hayday, and have regretted it. Maybe now that OW has imploded and 2mite is alienating its playersbase we'll get to see this one actually thrive. Whihc it deserves, it's way better than most soulless MOBAs on the market

recent games like lethal company, palworld, and helldivers proves that not every new game has to be a free-to-play that's over reliant on micro transactions, OR to cost $60-$70 off the bat. an while it's still gonna be available on Xbox, it'll also be on steam and PlayStation, instead of JUST Xbox and Windows 10 all that PLUS abstraction and gearbox being behind the wheel this time... this game is gonna do MUCH better, it HAS to

I was super into this game and Im so hyped its coming back, multiple friends that I got into the game messaged me about the comeback 😂

looks good to me. I will be giving this a go for sure when it comes out

I love that its not free to play I didn't get into some other games because I had to pay to unlock anything and I got sick of it! This is a great change, so I can feel rewarded when I do missions to unlock anything

keep making Gigantic content, much appreciated.

This good news gives me the first bit of hope in a long time that we might see Battleborn come back to life? I truly loved that game, even with its logistical issues. I think that people are starting to get tired of OW and I hope Gigantic sets a precedence that there are games that just came out at the wrong time that could do very well now!

Absolutely loved gigantic when it first came out I really hope this will be it's big break

Raynday back on Gig ayyy

I can't wait for this game to make a return

I loved it years ago, I'll gladly pay 20 bucks for it next (next) month.

Wishing Gigantic and gearbox the best but recent events regarding Paragon (again) really does concern me regarding this genre... Not to mention the state of Overwatch 2 itself. Hopefully gigantic lives on this time around for years to come. Similar to these games but not exactly moba, Spellbreak was my favorite but that one is also sunset unfortunately.

Wish Battleborn would come back but this will do

Gigantic has been risen from the grave while Overwatch is being messily kicked into one. I think the odds are in Gigantics favor.

¡Gracias!

we dont talk about gigantic and battleborn. im still mourning.

A guevooooooooo volvio, its back 😢😊

I loved Gigantic and Battleborn and I wish battleborn would be able to come back like how Gigantic is going to.

This game is gonna blow again, one of my favourite games of all time

I play this game on Xbox one if come back I going to playing back 😊

it came back btw if you guys are wondering.. its on steam and I have to say, "You're as beautiful as the day I lost you.."

Maybe one day Battleborn can come back, too.

Ill def buy this game

This game can be the best game gameplay wise, but if my team mates don't know or don't care about the objective then the overall experience will be lackluster, there is a reason why literally after hero shooters we had battle royales making success, it's because no one wants to carry team mates anymore

Cool

Giving it a box price is a mistake. Make it free with a 20 buck "unlock all heroes" bundle. Smite has done well with taht.

Can we get battborn to come back now as well

If it’s 20 and had skins only not live service it’s a win.

Great game for 20 bucks with a lot of potential!

This game came at a weird time, and if it had been made by pre Activision Blizzard or Riot, I'm sure it would've done much better. I'm glad it came back, because I could never afford a good enough pc to play it back then. I do think they should've monetize cosmetics, or they will not make enough revenue to be sustainable, because there is a ton of competition right now as a whole on coop and multiplayer, that not enough people may gravitate to it, or are already invested on other games.

This game was my favourite

my Pakko is back!!!

Tell me why just last week, I was thinking of gigantic

14:30 why are we talking about palworld.

BANGER

❤ok now I just need battleborn back!!!

Is it still running in UE 3 ?

i'm literally a big fan of gigantic and i will take it this 9 april

rampage edition summoning 300000 unnamed gigantic sleeper fans on april 9th

I think it will compete with paragon. Its early marketing will help it find success.

I think right now is more than a better time since overwatch is in shambles and paladins in my opinion is not in a great position either. This will definetly be the refresher people need at the moment from the hero shooter genra.

I think palworld has a good chance to make it lol. 6:03

Can we

🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

maybe battleborn can come back now too

$20 = 100 reais aproximado, queria jogar gigantic de novo, não vou mais não. XD

Seems like a bad. Idea, I get the companies motivation, but think about it. The OW success greatly came from console, because we didn't have any games like that. Now, we have a decent amount and even OW and games like PUBG that were once paid to play are now free. It's a bad idea. I'll be dropping 20 on release.

they already did the most important thing, cross play, now they need to spend money on advertising especially streamers, get the played base going, and keep it updates with events, skins, icons etc, all they have to do is copy overwatch, but instead the game isnt ruined lol

Are there no plans for Switch release?

I had 500+ hours in gigantic before it ever released. Overwatch wasn't even half the game. It never had its chance. Microsoft shit on its face. REmember that when you buy microsoft products.

I’m gonna buy this just for the fact that it’s buy to play with no micro transactions. I might never even play

I still DONT like PREselecting a build. I like more the in match chosing upgrades

You’re as beautiful as the day I lost you
