What it is

Gigantic is a team-based hero shooter that blends third-person shooting, melee, and spellcasting with MOBA-style strategy. Two teams of five each protect a giant magical Guardian and try to destroy the enemy's by gathering power, summoning creatures, and defeating opposing players. Combat is fast, colorful, and stylized with no blood or gore. The game is played online with other people and supports voice and text chat, and it offers optional cosmetic purchases; the 2024 Rampage Edition is a paid release while the original 2017 version was free-to-play.

How it's framed

Content is framed as competitive fantasy arena combat between teams of heroes and their monstrous Guardians. Violence is bloodless and abstracted into an esports-style objective game, with no real-world settings, mature themes, or moral weight attached to the fighting.
