GigaBash Unveils New “Ultraman Zero” DLC

In the GigaBash Arena, the fate of the entire world is in your hands. Will you choose to stand against evil, becoming the hero that the world is clamoring for? Or, will you ally yourself with the forces of evil, cementing yourself as wicked and vile, and crushing everything in your path? With the new Ultraman Zero DLC coming to GigaBash on July 9th, the choice will be yours to make, as the heroic Ultraman Zero and the nefarious Ultraman Belial will finally become playable. These two characters will make up the 9th overall DLC for the game, and join a stacked roster that already includes Godzilla, Destoroyah, Ultraman, and Gamera. For the fans who are curious, the designs featured in GigaBash are directly lifted from their debut appearance, 2009’s Mega Monster Battle: Ultra Galaxy Legends The Movie, in which Belial is finally freed from prison and wreaks havoc on the Land of Light.

Check out the full details below, including screenshots, renders, and more, courtesy of Passion Republic Games.

Ultraman Zero

Starting off with our hero, Ultraman Zero is a proficient fighter from the Land of Light. A true hero who understands that power without justice is dangerous, UItraman Zero arrives in the GigaBash Arena with his iconic Zero Sluggers to help keep enemies at bay. For ranged attacks, Zero can fire off Emerium Slashes to pummel them at range, but villains beware, as if they get too close, his mastery of space martial arts will triumph over the forces of darkness. Maybe they can try again in 20,000 years!

Ultraman Belial

On the opposing side… Ultraman Belial awaits. For those who seek great power and vengeful pride, Ultraman Belial’s dangerous Giga Battlenizer is a true force to be reckoned with. Players will be able to take control of Belial and utterly eviscerate the enemy with dark fireballs, dominate them with the Belial Whip, and channel the Belial Genothunder to rend them asunder. The alien genes infused within this fallen Ultra give it fearsome abilities and strength to match the fury within. Nothing will stand in your way as you carry out your revenge against the Land of Light. Feel the power within you; the rage and hatred will bring you strength to do what many are afraid to do.

For those uninitiated, GigaBash is the ultimate kaiju fighting game where you and up to three others can duke it out as fun, original characters, or your favorite iconic kaiju from pop culture. The game features several modes for replayability, including Onslaught Mode, in which the kaiju of your choice is pitted up against endless waves of evolving and mutating enemies, collecting various perks to help you in your never-ending journey. In fact, for extra challenge, beloved Godzilla characters will invade your playthrough, adding an extra layer of stakes. Additionally, you may face off against 8 random opponents and one final boss in the game’s arcade mode, something a bit more classic and nostalgic for the fighting game community, Story Mode, which just saw a new installment in the Final Ascension DLC, gives you the ultimate lore behind the Titans in four unique single-player campaigns. That’s just the single-player options!

For the multi-player and couch co-op enthusiasts, 1-4 players can destroy each other in a variety of fully destructible maps in GigaBash’s Battle Mode. This mode is available via Online with cross-platform matchmaking) or Local Play, giving players a chance to connect with fans all around the globe, or to just have a fun game to play with friends on a Saturday night.. Mayhem Mode, on the other hand, is a casual party game mode filled with wacky minigames for new and veteran players to enjoy together. With multiple game modes for every occasion, GigaBash offers endless opportunities for players to join the fray and rise as king among monsters.

One craved power and paid the ultimate price, and the other overcame that craving to grow more powerful and become the “Ultra” of all Ultras. Which one will you manifest in the kaiju arena? The ascended hero, Ultraman Zero? Or, the relentless, mighty, and acrimonious Ultraman Belial? Make your choice known when the GigaBash – Ultraman Zero DLC debuts on July 9, at 8pm PT on all platforms. For those who would like to see what GigaBash is all about, the game is available now on Steam, Xbox, Nintendo Switch, Epic Games Store, Stove, as well as PlayStation®4, and PlayStation®5.
