Ubisoft has started a playtest for March of Giants, a multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA) game. The game was originally developed by some of Ubisoft’s former employees while they worked for Amazon, but Amazon largely stopped its gaming efforts after that. The playtest will run from October 7 to October 18 and includes new features not seen in last year’s closed alpha test. Players can also join the "Pioneer" program, which rewards them for playing competitive matches. Rewards include a medal linked to their username and the chance to receive a special pack when the game is released in early access. To take part in the playtest, players need to visit the game’s Steam page and request access. They must also have Ubisoft Connect installed on their PC, though Ubisoft may review this requirement. Additionally, a Ubisoft account is necessary to participate. March of Giants is a 4 vs 4 MOBA where players control giant characters leading large battalions. The game features actual armies fighting on the battlefield, but the giants remain the core of the strategy. Each giant has unique abilities that influence gameplay and tactics. The playtest allows players to experience the game’s evolving features and provides feedback to the developers. It is an opportunity for players to get involved in the game’s development before its official release.
