Gigantic Enters Open Beta On Windows 10 And Xbox One On December 8th
that Gigantic Closed Beta weekend that Motiga's biggest news this week. Just four days after that Closed Beta weekend ends, Gigantic will be entering Open Beta on December 8th via the Xbox Game Preview program, allowing players on Windows 10 and Xbox One to play the game indefinitely, rather than having to wait for a Closed Beta weekend.
The Open Beta version of Gigantic will feature a weekly rotation of six heroes, taken from a roster of 16. There will be three maps available: Ghost Reef, Sanctum Falls, and Siren's Stand.
Motiga Vice President of Product Development James Phinney had the following to say about the announcement.
With Gigantic, we are trying to create an entirely new competitive experience. Throughout development, Gigantic has gotten attention for its unique art style, whimsical setting and fast-paced gameplay, but our goal has always been something more. We’ve sought to build a game full of intense moments and meaningful strategic choices, where there are many paths to victory and it’s always possible to come back and win. Open Beta and participation in the Xbox Game Preview program is an exciting new phase for the project. We’re really looking forward to partnering with players to finish up Gigantic.
While the Windows 10 and Xbox One versions will be going live on December 8th, a release date has not yet been announced for the Arc version, which has for Windows 7 and Windows 8. Hopefully, it won't be far behind.
