Syfy cancels Defiance TV show, but the game will live on

Defiance was an attempt to merge the worlds of TV and video games, but only the game remains.

TV network Syfy has decided to cancel the Defiance science-fiction show after three seasons. It follows a drop in ratings for the show that Syfy called “a truly groundbreaking series, delivering an immersive cross-platform experience.” The Defiance massively multiplayer online shooter — originally launched as a paid-for title on PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and PC, before going free-to-play in July 2014 — will keep going, though.
