It’s Time for A Rebirth!
Reports are coming in fast, folks. The oceans are rippling with the arrival of the newest additions to the GigaBash roster, blazing through from the Gamera universe as DLC characters! The GigaBash – Gamera – Rebirth DLC adds two new playable characters, Gamera and Guiron, into the game with their own unique skillsets to clash in the GigaBash arena.
From the outset, GigaBash was always meant to be a love letter to the legendary franchises that have shaped and colored the childhoods of the Passion Republic Games team. We never imagined that our little homage would afford us the generous opportunities to officially represent titans of kaiju cinema in our game. The Gamera – Rebirth DLC is yet another notch on our belts, and an incredible chance to round out the big three of fan-requested collaborations with Gamera, just in time for the franchise’s 60th anniversary!
With quite the selection of remarkable kaiju from the animated series, how did we decide who would join Gamera in the arena? Guiron’s striking and unique design lent itself an edge when it came to making the cut to GigaBash‘s roster. The distinctive knife head and speed give Guiron a frantic, mobile moveset and playstyle — one that fans of the Gamera franchise are sure to enjoy playing as and against. Not to mention, Guiron is well-beloved and frequently pops up in fan requests when it comes to adding characters, so we are excited to be able to fulfill them at last!
The time has come for a closer look at the new characters coming into the game and their powerful moves. Let’s take a deep dive!
Gamera
The one, the only, the guardian of children and protector of humanity. It’s Gamera in its most recent incarnation, as seen in the 2023 fully animated “Gamera – Rebirth” series! Speed across the arena with its Plasma Jets, giving it mobility beyond measure.
Overwhelm the foes from long range with Magma Blasters and Plasma Fireballs.
Immolate the enemy with Scorching Hand, showcasing Gamera’s mastery over the purifying flame.
Tough, determined, capable; Gamera is a force of nature not to be taken lightly. Nothing’s getting past this kaiju, and that’s a fact.
Guiron
Sporting its sleek, agile form as shown on screen in the 2023 “Gamera -Rebirth” series, Guiron cleaves its way into the arena with alacrity! Its bladed head delivers swift and devastating slices, driven by acrobatic flips and leaps.
Launch its razor-sharp Scale Shots at enemies who dare assume they’re safe out of blade’s reach.
Tired of being outranged? Close the distance with a piercing headlong charge.
Guiron’s agility makes it harder to pin down, and its body itself is a weapon to be reckoned with. Let the knife carve out a foundation for its dominance.
We hope the GigaBash Gamera -Rebirth DLC will resonate with longtime fans of the franchise as well as players yet to be introduced to such legends. It has been an honor for us to be able to bring these beloved characters to life and put them in your hands! Gamera and Guiron join the ranks of Godzilla and Ultraman, from the silver screen to your screens, in the ultimate kaiju fighting game.
With two of the most vicious kaiju ever put on screen entering the GigaBash stage, alongside a whole host of other iconic characters and 13 original GigaBash characters in the game, fans are in for a whale of a time. It’s high tide in the arena, and the waters offer no mercy, no remorse, and brook no quarter! Will you be the bulwark Gamera who stands unmoving against the break of waves? Or will you be the riptide Guiron, sharp and deadly, cutting off all hope of escape? Surge forth and take control of your fate!
