Defiance Celebrates Memorial Day Weekend With The Game Now Free on Steam and Marathon Episodes

Memorial Day weekend is almost upon us and it is time to pull out your favorite games and movies to relax alongside a little BBQing and poolside fun. If you have missed any episodes of Defiance then this will be the best time to catch up with all six episodes airing back to back on May 27th! Gamers can also try the game for free starting today until May 26th on Steam for PC. Read on to learn more.

Trion Worlds and Syfy today announced a joint promotion for the critically acclaimed TV Show and online game, Defiance. Fans interested in catching up on the series can do so throughout Memorial Day weekend as the first six episodes will air back-to-back on Monday, May 27th from 4-11pm on Syfy. All six episodes, and a season-to-date feature recap, will be available on Video on Demand (VOD) and for online viewing on Syfy.com throughout the weekend. In conjunction with the television replay, Trion will offer the opportunity for players who have not previously experienced the early TV tie-in game content to jump in-game and play alongside lead characters Nolan and Irisa in the early episodic content.



Gamers who have yet to explore the open world shooter can try it on PC for free on Steam from May 23rd at 10:00am PDT to May 26th at 1:00pm PDT. Steam is also offering a weekend long sale on Defiance for those whose thirst for alien technology and open world action isn’t satisfied by the trial. Both the Standard Edition and Digital Deluxe Edition will be 30% off. In addition, Steam will also be running a sale on “Bits,” the in-game currency for Defiance, during which customers will get more “Bits” for their money.



Other retailers will also be running sales across all platforms during the Memorial Day Weekend.

Note: If players have previously completed the Nolan and Irisa missions, these missions will not be available during this Rewind Weekend.
