The air, electric with anticipation. A spotlight pierces the dark. Behold, the biggest, most ambitious addition to <em>GigaBash<\/em> thus far! Taking the stage as the newest DLC for the kaiju fighting game, the <em>GigaBash \u2013 Final Ascension<\/em> DLC introduces two original characters, two brand new maps, new music, and a whole new Story Mode chapter as the main event.<\/p>\n<p><em>GigaBash<\/em> returns! This newest DLC marks our third original piece of content after the <em>Mighty Warriors<\/em> DLC and the free <em>MechaJuras<\/em> DLC released last year. This time, we\u2019re striking while the iron is molten hot. There has been a true resurgence of kaiju and tokusatsu media in recent times, and as a game made first and foremost to celebrate this genre, what better way than for <em>GigaBash<\/em> to go all out?! The <em>GigaBash \u2013 Final Ascension<\/em> DLC is our biggest and most ambitious DLC yet. We\u2019re treading on never-before trod ground (for us) here!<\/p>\n<p>Let us take a moment to gaze at the newest stars to grace our stage! See them in motion, showing off their dazzling and devastating movesets that are sure to impress.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a\/>Gaya Gigaman<\/h2>\n<p>The Champion of Justice, reborn in flames of hope! Gigaman returns in a new form, empowered by his inner fire made external. Star light, star bright; he\u2019s ready for any fight! Witness as he blitzes through space, punching faster than his enemies can even perceive.<\/p>\n<p>Taking inspiration from our own mythology, Gaya Gigaman\u2019s design calls into mind the image of those deities of the sun and sky and justice. Sharp, sleek, dare we say avian? Every bit of this new form is meant to evoke speed and power. Gaya Gigaman is also inspired by celestial objects and phenomena like nebulae, supernovae, and solar flares. After all, he is the \u201cstar\u201d of the show!<\/p>\n<p>Not fast enough? How about so fast, even his afterimages can punch?! Blueshift!<\/p>\n<p>And through the burning spirit of a true hero, Gaya Gigaman can empower his moves with his Flare ability.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a\/>Zargorah<\/h2>\n<p>Behold the Emperor of Titans, the Devourer of Stars: Zargorah! He is chaos given form, ascending to his throne to rend the world asunder. His reign is unimpeachable \u2013 the skies and earth belong to him in their entirety.<\/p>\n<p>A draconic chimera, Zargorah combines design elements from two of our characters, Rawa and Balzarr. This unity of form and purpose focuses the destructive power of the Extinction Dragon through the lens of the Hunter, sharpening it, the better to cleave the world in twain. Since our focus in this DLC is Gaya Gigaman, it was only natural that his enemy Rawa should also get an upgraded form.<\/p>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_swiper-wrapper swiper-wrapper\">\n<li class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_slide swiper-slide\"><\/li>\n<li class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_slide swiper-slide\"><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Gouts of flame, a lance of pure annihilation. Let none escape the wrath of Zargorah!<\/p>\n<p>And lo, the world shall tremble. Erupt jets of armageddon from the very crust of the Earth itself.<\/p>\n<p>One of the most common requests and suggestions that we at Passion Republic Games get in regards to <em>GigaBash<\/em> is to add more chapters to the game\u2019s Story Mode. For a long time, whenever we get a suggestion along those lines, we\u2019ve always internally defaulted to \u201cit would be nice,\u201d and carried on. As it turns out, we were right: it <em>is <\/em>nice to do a proper story expansion this time around, and we\u2019re incredibly excited for the fans to experience what we\u2019ve been cooking up in the <em>Final Ascension<\/em> DLC.<\/p>\n<p>The <em>GigaBash<\/em> roster is full of characters who are loving homages to kaiju and tokusatsu as a whole, but each one is also rich with personality and backstory that distinguishes them in their own right. When it came time to decide on which one to focus on for this DLC, we knew we wanted to tackle some big unanswered questions about the world of <em>GigaBash<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Following that line of reasoning, the character Gigaman comes to mind. Here is someone who seemingly came out of nowhere, doesn\u2019t quite fit into the existing Titan mold, and then mysteriously vanished for a long time before coming back. Who is he? <em>Why<\/em> is he? Gigaman was the natural choice, which is nice for many of our fans who have been asking to see his backstory. But that\u2019s not to say the others won\u2019t get a chance to shine! The new Story Mode chapter is meant to be a celebration of the entire <em>GigaBash<\/em> original roster, so keep an eye out for all of our Titans.<\/p>\n<p>To help deliver the story, we\u2019ve made two brand new maps in locales both familiar and yet foreign.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a\/>Yefan City<\/h2>\n<p>An eclectic mix of modernity and tradition, Yefan City is our first map that takes place in China, based on the real-world city of Tianjin. A river bisects the map, each half bearing its own distinct architectural style. This map features a ton of verticality and interesting mechanics that make for one grand battle arena.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a\/>Fractured Earth<\/h2>\n<p>What manner of event could possibly have happened to this place? What cataclysm wrought this decidedly alien landscape, the likes of which have only ever been seen in the Earth\u2019s core?! Play through the new Story Mode chapter and find out!<\/p>\n<p>To score the new maps and to accentuate the new Story Mode chapter, we have some real head-boppers freshly composed by local talents. We\u2019re taking the soundscape of <em>GigaBash<\/em> to its boundaries and beyond with this one.<\/p>\n<p><em>GigaBash<\/em> has always had this spirited, joyful sound to it, and it\u2019s reflected in its soundtrack. This time though, the stakes have never been higher. Things are going into a darker, more grandiose direction, with new tracks to match. Keep an ear out!<\/p>\n<p>We are eager to release the <em>GigaBash \u2013 Final Ascension<\/em> DLC and let our fans sink their teeth into what we have in store for them. The players will no doubt be scouring for every last detail in the new Story Mode chapter and the accompanying lore pages, and there will be a lot for them to scour indeed. New characters to learn, new maps to explore, new tracks to S-Class to. Despite what the name might say, this isn\u2019t the end for <em>GigaBash<\/em>! The year\u2019s only just begun!<\/p>\n<p>All the world\u2019s a stage for the 28 playable characters in the <em>GigaBash<\/em> roster, and everyone\u2019s ready to tear up some scenery. Come, take your measure! Are you Gaya Gigaman, the hero of everyone\u2019s hopes and dreams, your fire burning bright even after a decade dimmed? Or are you the primordial rage of Zargorah, cosmic chaos unleashed, taking what is yours? What fate will you carve into the foundation of the world?<\/p>\n<p>\t\t&#13;<br \/>\n\t\t\t&#13;<\/p>\n<h2>GigaBash<\/h2>\n<p>Passion Republic Games<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n\t\t\t<span>\u2606<\/span><span>\u2606<\/span><span>\u2606<\/span><span>\u2606<\/span><span>\u2606<\/span>&#13;<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"mspb-total-ratings\">362<\/span>&#13;\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n\t\t\t<span>\u2605<\/span><span>\u2605<\/span><span>\u2605<\/span><span>\u2605<\/span><span>\u2605<\/span>&#13;\n\t\t<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t<span>$24.49<\/span>&#13;\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n\t\tGigaBash 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.

Wreak enough havoc and you&#8217;ll evolve into your final form, the terrifyingly titanic S-Class.&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;\n\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Murmurs in the audience.
