The Syfy 'Defiance' Game Derives its Plot From the Ongoing Series
Senduran Bhakthakumaran — April 24, 2012 — Marketing
Video games are getting closer to reality with every step graphic designers take, and it seems the Syfy 'Defiance' game is close to aligning both worlds perfectly.
Defiance is a TV show that takes place after aliens have landed on Earth. Of course, such a plot line is ideal for a video game in the modern era. However, instead of making the game after each season of the show or with an entirely different plot, the series has decided to revolutionize video gaming entirely. The idea is to keep the video game aligned simultaneously with the show. The show will be continued with its game in mind so that both compliment each other well. It will keep audiences engaged in a way that involves them delving into the world of Defiance for longer than regular air times.
