We may be past the days of the almighty transmedia synergy, but Defiance is not ready to give up its penchant for world-changing events. Right now, the sci-fi game is racing into a Hot and Crazy Summer, which means a lot more firepower on both sides of the battle line.
Defiance’s newest patch adds several new contracts to tie into this event. By completing weekly and daily contracts, players will be guaranteed one of the new legendary HOT weapons and an epic mod. HOT weapons have a chance to proc nanos and additional health damage.
The MMO has also released a new pursuit called Ride the Heat Wave. Those who succeed at this pursuit will receive an epic assault rifle and a Sizzlin’ Surfer title. Hang ten, good buddies!
