Game Overview
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.
- EXPLORE THE RUINS: Venture across the ruins and wilds, just beyond the domain of the Gods. 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 mythic landmarks.
- EMPOWER YOURSELF: To fight back against the natural wildlife and fallen, corrupted 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, and protect yourself with improved and uniquely selected weapon designs and armor sets, crafted by ingredients you choose.
- DEFY THE GODS: Only after you have overcome the tasks set before you, may you cross the threshold into the Forgotten Crossroads and discover the mysterious purpose of your odyssey. Compelled by distant guides, seek out the shrines of the Olympians, and complete the trials to steal their knowledge and sever the Gods’ lingering ties of power.
- 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.
