New heroes in Gigantic: Rampage Edition
ROLAND, The Determined Survivor

Originally introduced in the title’s announcement trailer and available to play from the pre-alpha phase onward, Roland had glimpses of the spotlight but never fully made it—until now.
KAJIR, The Agile Fighter
Similarly, Kajir, the agile fighter, finally steps into the spotlight as one of the new heroes in Gigantic: Rampage Edition after being frequently mentioned and even the subject of leaks in 2018. Originally teased and discussed multiple times, Kajir’s presence was a topic of speculation and excitement at the time. Now, as a full-fledged hero, Kajir brings speed and agility to any team as well as eager anticipation for finally seeing him in action.
