Gigantic open beta on Xbox One kicks off on December 8

The upcoming action-MOBA Gigantic from Motiga will launch into open beta on Xbox Game Preview on Xbox One on December 8.

"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," said James Phinney, VP of Product Development at Motiga. "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."

The game that offers a model that should be familiar to MOBA players, will offer a rotation of six weekly heroes (out of a total of 16) across three maps; Siren's Stand, Ghost Reef and Sanctum Falls, for free.

There is also a limited time closed beta running this weekend from Thursday, December 1 at 9:00am (PST) through Sunday, December 4 at 11:59 pm (PST).
