OUR EARLY ACCESS ROADMAP

WHAT'S NEXT?

"HOUNDS OF ZEUS" Coming Oct 8, 2026!

Our first few months of Early Access we prioritized quality of life improvements and solidifying the foundation of our game. Now, with two major updates under our belt and a new publishing partner, we're excited to continue progressing towards our 1.0. We weighed feedback from our players with our internal goals, and we've outlined the features we plan to implement into the game. You can find the below graphic and its details at the Dawn of Defiance website! Look for the link in the right panel.

PREVIOUS MAJOR UPDATES

"DESERT REIGN"

December 2025, we released Dawn of Defiance "Desert Reign," the second of our major updates originally outlined on our Early Access roadmap. Desert Reign brought the first iteration of character creator, including the female player model, plus an expansion of the Ancient Desert and a new raid experience in the Temple of Poseidon. In addition, we released other new features, from two new facilities and three new legendary weapons, to repeatable quests and more! For a full list of features and improvements that came with Desert Reign, check out our Steam news page or our website. 

"SISTERS OF THE DEEP"

The first major update in our Early Access Roadmap went live in June 2025! "Sisters of the Deep" brought new enemies, new weapons, and new challenges and objectives across the Dark Forest, culminating with the game's first raid experience in the Temple of Athena! Take on the Gorgon Sisters to earn powerful weapons from the Gods that must be reforged at the new facility: the Hephaestus Forge!

Об игре

You are a fallen Spartan, cast into the Crossroads - the liminal realm between the mortal world and the Underworld. Denied the warrior's afterlife you were promised, you must fight your way from spurned mortal to a legend that rivals the gods themselves.

In this Greek mythology-inspired survival adventure explore a vast, beautiful and treacherous continent. Build an idyllic Greek palace, forge powerful gear and descend into the temples of the Olympians to strip them of their most powerful artifacts.

FORGE YOUR ODYSSEY

The Crossroads sits at the edge of the Underworld - a vast, untamed continent of ancient ruins and treacherous wilds. Hunt, gather and craft from the land to grow in strength. With great stamina, achieve the divine power of gliding to explore its furthest reaches, uncover powerful loot, solve ancient riddles, and cut down the mythical beasts and fallen heroes that stand between you and the power of the gods.

BUILD YOUR ACCROPOLIS 

Conquer the lands and build a home worthy of legend. From humble shelters and sprawling temple complexes, to grand monuments that attest your power, the world is yours to claim and grace in your image.

DEFY THE GODS

Raid the temples of the gods, defeat the mythical bosses that stand in your path, and break the seals of Olympus. Feast on the spoils of the land, forge armor and weapons of legend, and seize the gods' most powerful weapons to cut, bash, or spear your way through the mystery of the abandoned Crossroads.

BAND TOGETHER

Dawn of Defiance is fully playable solo offline or in co-op, with support up to 4 players. Venture into the Crossroads with your allies to divide and conquer the land together, sharing quest rewards amongst players. Customize your character to create a legend that is truly your own, while custom server settings shape the experience to your design and intensity. 

Please note: We utilize Epic Online Services for our backend to enable cross-play compatibility for those that want to play with friends regardless of where they purchased the game. This requires an installation of an EOS dependency to allow the game to communicate with backend systems. You do not need to install Epic Games Store, nor have an Epic account to play our game. If you are playing on Steam, the only data that this EOS dependency pulls from you is publicly available information related to your steam account.
