Following their landmark legal victory against Apple, you might expect Epic Games to be taking a well-deserved break. Instead, they’re right back at it with this week’s free mobile release: the chaotic and destructive Gigapocalypse!
Drawing inspiration from giant monster films, Japanese kaiju, and gaming classics like Rampage, Gigapocalypse puts you in control of a towering beast. Crush vehicles, demolish buildings, and obliterate everything in your path. It’s the ultimate power fantasy with a retro, pixelated twist for fans of satisfying destruction.
But it's not all about razing cities. You can also customize and care for your giga in a Tamagotchi-style mini-game. Uncover secrets to decorate your monster and its home, or unlock pets to join its mission to leave no skyscraper standing.
It may look like Godzilla, but due to copyright laws, it's a unique creation.While Epic Games' free weekly releases are a fantastic way to grab major PC titles, their mobile offerings have become a brilliant channel for discovering amazing indie games you might otherwise miss.
Gigapocalypse offers hours of city-leveling fun, all wrapped in a charming aesthetic that lets you enjoy the chaos without dwelling on the collateral damage. Seriously though, it delivers a compelling retro experience that feels both familiar and fresh.
