About
Defiance is the first multi-platform massive online shooter video game that is also a ground-breaking entertainment experience, interconnecting with a global television program on Syfy. The game combines the intense action of a third-person shooter, with the persistence and scale of a massive online game, while its TV counterpart exudes the scope, story, and drama of a classic sci-fi epic.
What is happening now
Defiance is a shooter-RPG hybrid that launched in 2013 across PlayStation 3, PC, and Xbox 360, blending third-person gunplay with role-playing progression systems. The game operated within a shared-world framework designed around cooperative and competitive gameplay. Recent coverage has been sparse, with mentions primarily limited to tangential connections - a university project examining the title and an unrelated physical release story about a different game called Vile: Exhumed. There's also reference to Chrono Defiance Last Stand, which appears to be additional content. Activity around the core game itself remains minimal, suggesting its player base has largely moved on since its original release.
