Alive? Online?

Fawkes Games have acquired the rights to the game and is re-releasing the game on April 18th 2025 https://fawkesgames.com You can read all about it here: https://fawkesgames.com/general/defiance-revival-2025/

(Well, as well as it has been doing after Trion nuked itself.. lol) Simple: Download the Fawkes Hub Game Launcher from Fawkes, have it download & install Defiance, then Play.. Seriously, why wait for it to be on Steam someday..? (Which they do plan on, but that may take a long time...)...

is it still playable?
