Big news in the gaming world! Ubisoft has just scooped up 'March of Giants' from Amazon, and this acquisition could be a game-changer. The team behind the free-to-play title is now under Ubisoft's wing, already hard at work on the next major update.
'March of Giants' throws players into a unique battlefield, letting them control colossal combatants in a gritty, early 1900s-inspired urban setting. Imagine a 4v4 tactical multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA) where you're not just battling, but commanding armies of smaller units and deploying powerful 'Battleworks' like trenches, tanks, and turrets to dominate the enemy. The gameplay blends real-time strategy with lane-based combat, requiring both strategic coordination and mastery of the giant heroes.
But here's where it gets interesting: the team behind this game is stacked with industry veterans. Leading the charge are two former Ubisoft team members, bringing their experience from some of the company's biggest hits. Alex Parizeau, the Senior Production lead, previously managed Ubisoft Toronto and oversaw several major AAA productions. Xavier Marquis, the Creative Director, was the original creative force behind 'Rainbow Six Siege'. Their combined expertise is a serious asset.
