Gigantic Launches "Exile In The North" Update

Motiga and Perfect World launched the first major update to action MOBA Gigantic today. Titled "Exile in the North", this update adds new features to the free-to-play game including a new Hero, new skins, and new weapons. There are also several improvements impacting gameplay and quality of life.

The new Hero is Pakko, a love-able (frost?) giant filling the role of melee/tank. Pakko arrives with an alternate winter-themed skin. In addition, Wu and Tripp also receive two new winter skins each -- as well as winter-themed skins for their weapons.

In the area of gameplay improvement, end-of-match Crown Boosts and Honor Bonuses for shorthanded teams are being implemented. Full details on all of this are available on the Gigantic site.
