JOIN OUR DISCORD See the Community Discord link in our social section on the right panel! OUR EARLY ACCESS ROADMAP The first major update in our Early Access Roadmap went live this June! "Sisters of the Deep" brings new enemies, new weapons, and new challenges and objectives across the Dark Forest, culminating with the game's first raid experience in the Temple of Athena! Take on the Gorgon Sisters to earn powerful weapons from the Gods that must be reforged at the new facility: Hephaestus Forge! "Sisters of the Deep" is only the beginning of our Early Access journey! After having prioritized the first few months of Early Access to making quality of life improvements and solidifying the foundation of our game, we're excited to continue progressing towards our 1.0 Release with new content across four more major updates. We weighed feedback from our players with our internal goals, and we've outlined the features we plan to implement into the game before the final release. You can read that list and more information at the Dawn of Defiance website! Look for the link in the right panel. About the Game As you take your first steps into the afterlife, you discover the gates of the Underworld are sealed! The Gods are no longer here to protect you. You must start from nothing, arm yourself against the dangers of the isles, and break the seals of the Olympians which bar you from your eternal destiny in Elysium! EXPLORE THE ISLES Venture across the ruins and wilds, just beyond the gates of the Underworld. With heightened movement abilities, traverse and endure the natural challenges of coastal cliffs, foggy woods, dark caves, and blistering sands to unlock treasure and power amidst reclaimed temples. EMPOWER YOURSELF To fight back against the natural wildlife and fallen heroes that came before, you must grow in strength through acquired recipes and upgrades. As you claim victories across the isles, build and adorn impressive Greek structures that rival the halls of Olympus, protect yourself with customizable, crafted gear, and weld together weapons of the Gods. DEFY THE GODS After you have learned to survive on Veilpoint, you must seek answers across the Crossroads! In the Gods' mysterious absence from the Crossroads, their shrines are overrun by their enemies. To discover the truth and break the Olympic seals, you must venture into their domain and slay the mythic bosses within. BAND TOGETHER Undertake this deadly odyssey on your own, or recruit up to three friends to aid your journey at any time in online cooperative multiplayer. Divide and conquer to gather resources and claim the isles in the name of Defiance while sharing objective rewards across players, so you never miss out. Please note: We utilize Epic Online Services for our backend to enable cross-play compatibility for those that want to play with friends regardless of where they purchased the game. This requires an installation of an EOS dependency to allow the game to communicate with backe
