Engage in epic real-time battles against the Gargantua forces, and fight for humanity!

Players must level up their sword-wielding skills against a horde of enemies, and ultimately face their master, the towering titan named Gargantua. Fight solo or join with up to three others in online co-op, mastering your swordsmanship in blocking, parrying, and attacking, as well as your fighting strategy to defeat the mighty Gargantua!

Starting today, new updates include a new 8-player lounge for players to socialize and join games together, new beautifully crafted weapons and the addition of MOD mode for creators. Yomuneco will also host a shield design competition and release even more brand-new weapons for the 1-year anniversary throughout June and July.

“On June 7, 2020, ‘Swords of Gargantua’ will be one year old. We were able to reach the first anniversary thanks to all the fans who continued playing. The way you are playing has always encouraged the development team and provided us with new discoveries and challenges. We will continue to do our best to meet your expectations. We hope that you will continue to play and support us to create a future for VR that does not yet exist,” said Yomuneco Co-Founder and CSO Kiyoshi Shin.

• Online Lounge: The Online Lounge is a new area where up to 8 players can come together and socialize. Players can also use emotes to visually express their emotions and this pairs well with the game’s native voice chat. Players can also start 4-player co-op quests through the lounge.
• New Weapons: Suzaku & Phoenix: Suzaku and Phoenix are independent one-handed swords. Suzaku is a weapon specializing in attack power, and Phoenix is a weapon specialized in defense. By holding both, players can become an ultimate sword fighter. Participate in in-game events between now and June 26 to unlock these weapons.
• MOD Mode (Beta version): MOD mode is a new mode where players can customize in-game parameters such as the player's attack, movement speed, or customizing enemy wave types. It has been in alpha for PCVR players, and with this update, it will move into beta and be available for Oculus Quest players, too.

Coming Soon in June and July: Events and Updates
