You are the Defier of Gods. Ascend from weak soldier to god-like anti-hero, venturing across the ruined Isles, building impressive temples, and vanquishing the Gods' followers to gain their mythic abilities.

Gather resources, construct a base, craft and upgrade your gear, and face down the legendary challenges of the Gods with friends or on your own to survive.

Discontent brews in the Underworld, and by the hand of Charon, you have been spared death and brought to a lost shore to be tested. To discover your role in an elusive plot against the Gods, you must start from nothing, hunt for resources, and arm yourself against the dangers of the isles. Only then will you prove yourself worthy of the greater trials ahead.

Scheduled for release in early Q2 2025, Dawn Of Defiance's first Early Access update, titled “Sisters of the Deep,” will bring new mythic enemies, legendary gear, and an overhaul to four shrine objectives, coincides with the reveal of the living Roadmap!

Players can now get excited for 30 additional features and five major updates centered around each biome before the game’s 1.0 Release!
