The Return of Defiance
After two failed launches, the quirky MMO looter-shooter, Defiance, is back for a third attempt under the new publisher Fawkes Games. This latest iteration has transformed into a free-to-play model, complete with thrilling boss battles and multiplayer mayhem that promises hours of entertainment.
A Nostalgic Journey
In Defiance, players experience a mix of shooting, looting, and action similar to Borderlands. Whether playing solo or teaming up in a co-op mode with friends, the most memorable moments arise during large-scale events involving massive bosses and waves of enemies that challenge players to earn top-tier rewards.

For those who might have missed the original run, the game features big public events that ask players to come together against colossal foes for a shot at amazing loot. The gameplay includes explosive weapons that really shine during intense moments.
The Plot Thickens
The world of Defiance has its roots in a TV series that aired on SyFy, where human factions and aliens clashed over a town on a ruined Earth, a storyline enriched with backstory and lore. Although the MMO faced struggles upon initially launching, the potential for captivating gameplay and a rich narrative remains high in this relaunch.
While previous players of the retail game won’t see their assets transferred over to this iteration, the free version still aims to captivate both newcomers and veterans alike. This reboot encourages players to explore a challenging landscape filled with formidable enemies and vast opportunities for exploration.
For a taste of nostalgic gaming, new players can grab the Defiance launcher directly from Fawkes Games. Get ready for another epic adventure!
