Defiance - witness the evolution of entertainment.

For the first time in history, a TV show and a game will exist together in a shared universe, influencing and impacting each other.

The year is 2046 and a new era dawns as the town ‘Defiance’ stands amongst the warring nations of an Earth on the brink of collapse. Taking on the role as an Ark Hunter the Defiance game allows users to experience a variety of missions, co-op battles and explore a futuristic open world which, working alongside the weekly TV show, gives the players a chance to change the program.

Witness the ground-breaking television event express from the U.S when Defiance begins on SF with a movie length episode on Thursday 18th April at 9.30pm.
