GigaBash Announces Ultraman: Rising DLC Release Date for Nintendo Switch
GigaBash, the kaiju-inspired multiplayer brawler developed by Passions Republic Games, is set to expand its lineup with the arrival of the highly anticipated Ultraman: Rising downloadable content (DLC).
Announced during New York Comic Con, this new partnership brings characters and abilities from the globally recognized Ultraman: Rising animated feature directly to the Nintendo Switch, with the DLC scheduled for release on November 28, 2024 via the Switch eShop. GigaBash continues to make waves among fighting game enthusiasts since its original launch, offering players fast-paced arena battles with an ever-expanding roster of iconic monsters and heroes.
The upcoming Ultraman: Rising DLC introduces a playable duo with "Ultraman & Emi"—a unique pairing from the Netflix animated film.
Players will take control of Ken Sato, a star baseball player who reluctantly becomes the guardian of Emi, a newborn kaiju.
Combining Ultraman’s heroic might with Emi’s unpredictable, toddler-like powers, this new character delivers a distinctive skill set that mirrors the film’s action and emotional depth. According to statements from Passions Republic Games, players can expect a versatile move list inspired by the dynamic relationship between Ken Sato and Emi.
The DLC faithfully adapts signature abilities from Ultraman: Rising, featuring both deliberate and accidental combos that reflect the challenges of surrogate parenthood in the face of monster-sized adversity.
The development team highlights the addition as part of GigaBash’s commitment to honoring legendary tokusatsu properties while offering fresh experiences for Switch players. With this latest update, GigaBash’s playable roster is set to hit 23 characters, blending crossover favorites from the wider Ultraman universe and classic kaiju cinema.
The Ultraman: Rising collaboration continues a trend of high-profile partnership DLCs, expanding the game’s appeal and replay value.
