Overview
Description

Defiance is a ground-breaking massively multiplayer online shooter that combines the intense, fast-paced action of a third-person shooter with the persistence and scale of an open-world RPG. Set in a futuristic, transformed Earth, players take on the role of ark hunters exploring a vast alien landscape, completing cooperative missions, and engaging in massive dynamic events. Uniquely tied to a global television program on Syfy, the game and the show share a connected narrative universe where events in one medium can influence the other. Developed by Trion Worlds, it offers rich tactical combat, deep character progression, and robust multiplayer experiences across multiple gaming platforms.

Rage of the Wookiees adds the planet Kashyyyk to Star Wars Galaxies, letting players experience the dense jungles, towering trees, and rich Wookiee culture. The expansion introduces new quests, crafting recipes, and a unique player housing system built into the native environment. The content blends classic Star Wars lore with deep sandbox gameplay, offering both PvE storylines and open‑world PvP opportunities for veterans and newcomers alike.
