Defenders! We're proud to announce the Defenders of Etheria Kickstarter campaign is LIVE until May 18th!

By backing the game on Kickstarter, you can take advantage of early-bird discounts, franchise-wide game and DLC bundles and earn backer-exclusive rewards for both Defenders of Etheria AND Dungeon Defenders 2!

Miss our original announcement? Not to worry, we've included a short recap below, and you can find additional information on our Kickstarter page!

It’s about time the Old One’s Army played defense! Enraged by the death of his father at the hands of the Harbinger, the Prince of Dragonfall has enlisted Etheria’s mightiest heroes to lead a crusade against the Old One’s Army.


Defenders of Etheria won’t be your traditional tower-defense game (not that Dungeon Defenders was very traditional to begin with), but a cooperative, rogue-lite bullet-heaven with all the added charm and stoicism of your favorite mostly-silent protagonists!

Looking for other ways to support Defenders of Etheria? By wishlisting us on Steam, you can help us gain additional visibility for the game while receiving notifications regarding updates and availability. It’s a win-win!

https://store.steampowered.com/app/2647870/Defenders_of_Etheria/

For Etheria!

Greetings, Defenders! Player Shops have been re-enabled in our most recent hotfix, and the merchants guild has waived the Etherian Tax applied to Player Shops for the next two weeks in celebration!


We appreciate your patience and understanding while Player Shops were disabled. It's our mission to uphold the integrity and ensure the longevity of Dungeon Defenders 2, and—in addressing ongoing issues involving player trading—it was necessary to do so. Please enjoy this benefit on our behalf until April 8th.

For Etheria!

• Player shops have been re-enabled.

• Implemented a potential fix for equipment generating with a gear score of 1.

For Etheria!

Greetings, Defenders! Today, we have something exceptionally exciting to share with you—a new game announcement; Defenders of Etheria!


Defenders of Etheria won’t be your traditional tower-defense game (not that Dungeon Defenders was very traditional to begin with), but a cooperative, rogue-lite bullet-heaven with all the added charm and stoicism of your favorite mostly-silent protagonists!

It’s about time the Old One’s Army played defense! Enraged by the death of his father at the hands of the Harbinger, the Prince of Dragonfall has enlisted Etheria’s mightiest heroes to lead a crusade against the Old One’s Army.


Venture solo or team up with up to three allies to one of Etheria’s many fantastical, contested grounds. Face unrelenting waves of the Old One’s Army and earn experience, runes and equipment as enemies are slain. These rewards may be bolstered by completing random, optional objectives that arise during the mission, and by defeating admittedly less optional, much scarier bosses!

Upon successfully completing a mission, return to the hub to spend your riches upgrading your equipment, recruiting new pets, and honing your heroes’ skills to aid you on future endeavors!

Remember, this content is very early in development and subject to change substantially between now and release!

Defenders of Etheria will be coming soon to Kickstarter! If you'd like to be the first to know when we launch, visit our Prelaunch Page to sign up for email notifications.

Additionally, you may find more information on how to unlock an early-supporter exclusive Sapphire Betsy pet for Defenders of Etheria!
