Ultraman & Emi From ‘Ultraman: Rising’ Join the Fight in New GigaBash DLC!

GigaBash returns with an all new playable character!

Previously teased on their social media, fans knew going in they were to get a DLC themed after the hit Netflix film, Ultraman: Rising. It was up in the air whether or not this would include Ken Sato’s incarnation of Ultraman or one of his kaiju foes featured in film, such as Neronga. Thankfully, kaiju & gaming enthusiasts alike don’t have to wait any longer, as KU was provided the details on the latest DLC to come from Passion Republic Games. This fifth DLC from the studio will be a two-in-one, meaning Ultraman & Emi will join the battle together as one character! This addition will expand the roster of the game to include 23 fully playable and unique characters. With these two adorable protagonists joining the crazy kaiju-packed action of GigaBash, will you rise to the challenge and discover what it means to be a hero?

Previously, GigaBash has released a Godzilla four-pack, a classic Ultraman-themed lineup of four, two additional Godzilla villains, and two original characters inspired by Mighty Morphin’ Power Rangers.

Regarding this epic and exciting DLC, Passion Republic Games states: “Big Hero, bigger responsibilities! As Ultraman, you are star athlete Ken Sato, who returns home reluctantly to assume his father’s Ultraman legacy. But things quickly get complicated when he finds himself raising a newborn Kaiju, whom he names Emi. Like all infants, she’s curious yet temperamental, sweet yet demanding; even her cries are like weaponized tantrums. Battle as this unlikely pair using a mix of powerful and sometimes accidental combos to defeat enemies, all while grappling with the challenges of being a surrogate father.”
