Sino-Japanese War action shooter The Defiant coming to PS5 at an unspecified date

Publisher 4Divinity and developer Hoothanes announced that The Defiant, an upcoming first-person shooter set during the Second Sino-Japanese War in China, will be coming to the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S as well. A release date for any of the platforms for the game has not been announced as of yet.

As mentioned above, The Defiant is set against the backdrop of the Second Sino-Japanese War, which took place in China from 1937-1945. Often referred to as the War of Resistance Against Japan in China, the war is often cited as the beginning of World War II in Asia, and is the largest Asian war in the 20th century.

“You’re stepping on the land irrigated with warm blood. Boundless snowy forest, heavily guarded lanes, dangerous villages behind the enemy lines… In these places you’ll experience the serious atmosphere during the War of Resistance against Japanese invasion,” reads the game’s official description.

“What you hold is not only a weapon, but also a memory passing through centuries, a proof of history. You can use dozens of guns in this game, including rifles, assault rifles, pistols and machine guns. The classic Hanyang Rifle, the legendary Mauser Military Pistol and MP18 Submachine Gun, as well as other weapons showing up in modern history of China… Convert them into your survival instinct and blaze a trail on the battlefield full of dangers.”
