Defiance Is Back from the Dead: Free-to-Play MMO Shooter Relaunches on PC with a Bang!
Back in the day, I was deeply engrossed in “Defiance,” a game created by the now-closed studio, Trion Worlds. This game was designed to complement the Syfy TV show of the same name, which ran for three seasons and ended back in 2015. Initially launched as a premium game on PS3, Xbox 360, and PC in April 2013, it switched to free-to-play just 14 months after its release. A revamped version of the looter shooter, “Defiance 2050,” made its debut in July 2018. Unfortunately, the relaunch didn’t fare too well, with “Defiance 2050” being one of the lowest-rated free-to-play games during its time. Later on, the German company Gamigo took over Trion Worlds and shut down both versions of “Defiance” in April 2021.
