Masaru Ohnogi, Thirdverse CBO and Executive Producer on SWORDS of GARGANTUA said: “We have invested substantially in the launch of SWORDS of GARGANTUA for Quest and PCVR devices because we are dedicated to our longstanding community. The growth of the VR community depends on quality, fan-favorite content like SWORDS of GARGANTUA and so it’s also important to us that we are following through for the industry as leaders. One of our core values at Thirdverse is ‘First to Try, First to Fail, First to Recover.’”
SWORDS of GARGANTUA initially launched in 2019 and has been a fan favorite with high ratings and reviews over the years. In this relaunch of the game, players will continue to be able to play online in co-op with up to 3 other players, and also now be able to play offline in single-player mode to practice their sword-combat skills. Additionally, a new sword will be offered that brings tremendous strength, among the existing wide variety of weapons available, including one and two-handed swords, axes, maces, boomerangs, shields, and more.
