'GigaBash' Unveils Couch Co-op Mode, PC Demo During Steam Next Fest - Trailer

by Rainier on Feb. 10, 2022 @ 2:05 p.m. PST

GigaBash is a multiplayer arena brawler with gigantic film-inspired kaiju, larger than life heroes, earth-shattering special attacks and fully destructible environments.

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 Super Smash Bros with the jaw-dropping scale of classic kaiju movies. Choose from a roster of unique characters of Titans and Heroes, each with their own skills and playstyle! Trade fistful blows with up to 4-players, summon lightning from the heavens, throw office buildings at your friends, 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.

Choose from a wide variety of maps and locales as your battleground; each of them has its own unique map mechanic. Fight your foes in densely populated cityscapes, a holiday beach resort next to an active volcano, an industrial city in the middle of Siberia, and more! Got destroyed by another player in the game? Don’t put down your controller just yet! Each locale has its own unique post-death mechanic. Stay in the game and fire an orbital cannon or drop a meteor to exact revenge on the enemy responsible for your early defeat.


In Mayhem Mode, up to 4 players can pick from a wacky collection of minigames via local play. It’s designed to be "easy to pick up, fun to watch, and more fun to play", making it the perfect to bust out at a party or when you have a mix of seasoned players and first-timers at your house.

Mayhem Mode will be included in the free demo at the upcoming Steam Next Fest (from Feb 21st-28th), alongside Online Mode where players can challenge each other in Free-For-All, Teamplay, or Duel, battling against AI, and Couch Play, which lets you thrash friends and family from the comfort of your own home. 

The devs will also host 2 live streams on Steam during the Next Fest to showcase the game. Expect lots of gameplay, shenanigans and even a dev tournament!

Day 1: Let’s Hang Out with the Devs! 

21/2 (Mon)

9 PM(PST)

Day 3: Tournament: Duel of Devs 

23/2 (Wed)

9 PM(PST)

The demo will also be available on Epic Games Store on the same date. Players on both platforms will get to battle each other in Online Play via the technical sorcery of Cross-Play networking.


Key Features:

  • UNLEASH THE BEAST: Choose from a colourful roster of 10 unique characters in Battle Mode, each with their own moveset and playstyle. Can you master them all?
  • STOMPING GROUND: Dive into a fun frenetic free-for-all with as many as four other players, duke it out in Battle mode, or pair up in 2v2. Wage war around the world - from cityscapes to exotic locales, nowhere is safe from the wrath of the Titans!
  • HOMEFRONT: Hop on the couch to challenge up to three friends with local multiplayer. Nobody home? No problem, just head online!
  • EASY TO LEARN, TRICKY TO MASTER: Time your attacks, block your opponents, use grabs and specials and build that meter to reveal your final form!
  • CLASH OF THE TITANS: Discover the origins (and misadventures) of the Titans in four unique single-player campaigns, each with their own oversized protagonist.
  • HALL OF THE ALPHAS: Go head to head in Duel mode, challenging another player to see who is the true King of the Titans.
  • MULTIPLAYER MAYHEM: Experience the ultimate party mode with a variety of minigames designed for maximum fun. Only available in local play.

GigaBash is coming to PS4, PS5 and PC (Steam / Epic Games Store) in 2022.
