Big Changes to systems in-game, and lots of bug fixes and improvements.

It's about time that this game got an official Steam version!

Gigantic is great, and I'll be glad that more people will get to see and play it!

For sure, it's one of the best games I've played, it's a shame it doesn't get the recognition it deservers, hopefully with the Steam release it'll get more attention.

Probably only the W10 version and Xbox

Wulfram · Jun 22, 2017

Ah, so this isn't about a really big steam page then?

wildfire · Jun 22, 2017

About time. This is better than Overwatch IMO.

Oh well that sucks, was thinking about buying founders pack but if there is not xbox steam cross play i don't think it's worth long term.

Will try the free version and see how it goes

I honestly thought the same and was curious why there is need for a gigantic steam page

😂

I came into the thread thinking the same.

Never looked into this game, will check it out.

Like that art style.

I, too, thought this thread was about some redesigned huge steam pages, lol

Maybe my bad lol, sorry.

Gigantic |OT| A Big, Big Love

That joke is the extent of my interest in the game

deoee · Jun 22, 2017

I guess Steam = Arc once it's out?

Psyfer · Jun 22, 2017

Downloaded this when I downloaded Phantom Dust HD. I did the tutorial and waited in queue for an hour before I got a game. 3 people went afk/left the game. Waited in queue another 30 mins before I quit trying.

Def. wasn't the case early this year with the Win 10 version.

amdb00mer · Jun 22, 2017

I need to really give this game another shot.

BigPapi · Jun 22, 2017

Gigantic is great but some of the most recent changes really put a damper on my excitement specifically instant summon creatures.

PeterOliver · Jun 22, 2017

Thank goodness, it didn't have a chance without Steam.

Next up, Paragon please.

LukasTaves · Jun 22, 2017

Best moba ever.

Hope they eventually get cross play between all versions.

That's the one change I didn't like. It sucked to be on a team where they would spam creatures to day, but felt amazing using it against the enemy.

Theorry · Jun 22, 2017

Love the Destiny/Overwatch UI

Yes, I think that's the intention.

Keasar · Jun 22, 2017

That is great! It was one of my biggest concerns regarding the game, Arc probably not having a wide spread and the Windows 10 version being closed off from the Arc version.

So glad to see it coming on Steam as well.

KatamariOnTheRocks · Jun 22, 2017

Always wanted to give this game a try so I deff will now.

As much as it frustrates me that Battleborn was obliterated due to the Overwatch VS Battleborn comparisons I'm happy that this game will be able to live/die by merit rather than it's perceived placement in a "competition between 2 games"

What I've seen of it so far reminds me a bit of Battleborn so I have a feeling I'll love this game just as much.

SmoothRunningGun · Jun 22, 2017

Sweet. It's a fun game.

BlizzKrut · Jun 22, 2017

If you go to the bottom of the website, you can unlock 4 different skins (recolors) through social media accounts.

Just played a few rounds but I feel like the magic from earlier this year is gone...

At least I remember it being more fun back then

Will try again when Steam launches.

Yeah but the OT not using the Pixies lyric is a travesty.

Exile20 · Jun 22, 2017

Will give it another go tonight

ashecitism · Jun 22, 2017

I wonder if a separate launcher or the Arc launcher in Steam.

A dev on Reddit said launching on Steam would launch a sort of "Arc Lite" and then you'd be able to play from there.

veloxStrix · Jun 22, 2017

It's not that big...

Dreavus · Jun 22, 2017

I'm guessing Arc and Steam will use the same account?

Miker · Jun 22, 2017

I've always thought this has looked great, but I can't help but the W10 exclusivity stuff early on probably killed all chances of it really taking off, especially given how long it's taken to come out. The announce trailer was from July 2014. So much has happened in the MOBA landscape, so many games have come and gone, and people have their game of choice that's not just LoL or DOTA, I don't know where Gigantic will fit in. I hope I'm wrong and it finds an audience on Steam.

Hopefully they will patch in the magic back for the steam version.
