Description:
Gigantic is coming back for a limited time in this "throwback event", but could this lead to something more for the shooter?

FULL STORY ======================================================================

Gigantic , a team-based shooter initially released in 2017, has returned for a limited time. From October 5 to October 7 the third-person shooter is hosting a throwback event where certain players will be able to play through the game again. Unfortunately, the event appears to be invite-only, so wont
be publicly accessible, but could lead to something more for the game depending on its popularity.

Originally released on PC and Xbox One , Gigantic didnt have a particularly smooth launch. The title was shut down almost exactly one year later due to the game being unable to break through in a crowded market resulting in the title being delisted across all platforms and the servers being shut down.

However, five years on, the game is making a surprise comeback with a limited-time event. Within this event, players will be able to experience features that never made it to Gigantic s core content, like a reworked progression system, new customization features, and an entirely new game mode designed for more fast-paced play.

With all these new features being added, the question of whether or not this event could lead to Gigantic s big revival is circulating, and many players are taking to the game's Steam reviews to share how they wish the game would return - especially now following the announcement of new content and a limited event.

Even if you didnt get to experience Gigantic the first time the game rolled out, this event is a great opportunity to experience what couldve been.
What's more, the event could lead to something more for the shooter,
depending on how many players are keen to jump in.
