Official fact sheet

On a distant planet, three powerful forces are about to collide in the most spectacular action game ever seen! Giants: Citizen Kabutos award-winning gameplay offers up unbelievable action, tons of laughs, gripping drama, and amazing graphics. Play as three unique species including the technologically powerful, hard partying Meccs, the ethereal and magical Sea Reapers, and the unstoppable behemoth known as Kabuto. Giants: Citizen Kabuto is action adventure on a massive scale!

  • Dawn casts yawning rays across the beautiful landscape. Flying high in the atmosphere, an armored Mecc makes his hover-pack patrol mission. Down below, the Mecc sees a gorgeous Delphi siren command her oceans. Across the island, the fierce Kabuto roars, stomps, and does whatever else it wants to do, and none of the wicked little Smarties around him complain, because Kabuto is very, very, very big. Pulling out of the sky as he crosses from island to ocean and then to land again, the Mecc takes careful aim at a herd of Vimps and, with a blast, blows several into chunks of delicious scattered meat.
  • The oddity that is Giants: Citizen Kabuto took PC gamers by storm when its lush visuals and outstanding variety of gameplay swept up awards and praise on that platform. Now that stunner comes in all its full glory to the PlayStation 2, with even more dazzling special effects and graphics and refined controls specifically redesigned for the DUALSHOCK 2 analog controller. Players assume the personality of one of the three bizarre and wonderful main creatures–Meccs, Delphis, and Kabuto–for an adventure quite unlike any other in gaming. With plenty of humor and passion in its sprawling story, Giants is indeed a giant game.
