Prepare yourself young warriors for another quest of epic adventure, grand silliness and great misfortune! As Trendy Entertainment has seen fit to release Dungeon Defenders II on Steam Early Access for PC December 5th 2014. What does that mean young squire, well I’ll tell you. It means you better grab three of your friends and start your training now, you don’t have much time to get ready.
There’s also a lot of Dungeon Defenders players so if you think you won’t be able to find three friends in time to start slaying Orcs, Goblins and Demons in Dungeon Defenders II you would be oh so wrong. Trendy Entertainment says there are over six million Dungeon Defenders players, SIX MILLION. You have to be able to find three other like minded individuals in the sea of six million gamers, don’t cha think?
Other than this trailer for Dungeon Defenders II there’s not much known about the state of the game. To its credit Trendy Entertainment says it has been using a limited group of community members dubbed The Defense Counsel to test the game so know that if their interests happen to line up with your for what you wanted Dungeon Defenders II to be you’re going to be singing to the heavens, if not… well… I have no idea.
Also there’s something going on during the 2014 Gaming Awards with a special exclusive look, aka probably some extended gameplay shenanigans, but also an announcement about the future of the franchise. Anyone want to take bets on what’s coming up for Dungeon Defenders? Maybe an FPS or a third-person cyber shooter set in a medieval neo-tokyo or what about a wacky kart racer? Anything is possible, thankfully we don’t have to wait very long to find out exactly where Dungeon Defenders is going next.

PRESS RELEASE
DUNGEON DEFENDERS II HITS STEAM EARLY ACCESS ON DECEMBER 5
Will launch as part of the 2014 GAMING AWARDS with a special announcement at the show
Today, Trendy Entertainment, the masterminds behind 2011’s critically acclaimed action tower defense hit Dungeon Defenders, announced that their highly anticipated sequel, Dungeon Defenders II, EARLY ACCESS program will launch in conjunction with the 2014 GAMING AWARDS through Steam on December 5th.
“With over six million Dungeon Defenders players across PC, Console & Mobile, we’re thrilled to be able to offer them the chance to play Dungeon Defenders II,” said Darrell Rodriguez, CEO of Trendy Entertainment. “At Trendy, we believe the best games are made in a partnership with their communities. For the last 12 months we’ve been quietly developing Dungeon Defenders II with a limited group of community members we call the Defense Counsel, and we are incredibly proud of our joint accomplishments. Now the time has come to bring the game to Steam and open it up a whole new channel of feedback through Early Access.”
Viewers of the 2014 GAMING AWARDS will not only get an exclusive look at Dungeon Defenders II during the show, but Trendy has also prepared a special announcement about the future of the franchise.
With hundreds of hours of gameplay already developed, players that purchase the game in Early Access will get access to a pre-alpha build of Dungeon Defenders II and be able to play the entire first region of the game with the franchise’s four iconic heroes. “This past year we’ve spent most of our time innovating and improving upon the core Action Tower Defense gameplayDungeon Defenders is famous for, working with our Defense Council to create something fans both new and old will enjoy,” said Brad Logston, Senior Producer of the Dungeon Defenders franchise. “The most exciting thing for us? The feedback we’ve received has been overwhelmingly positive, with some saying we’ve reached a quality bar above what they expect from an Early Access game. This has meant so much to us, and as we work past pre-alpha, we’re eager for new players to join us to help make the best Dungeon Defenders game possible.”
In Dungeon Defenders II, the land of Etheria has been invaded by the Old Ones and players must rally, alone or with friends, to push them back! With a host of new defenses, features and loot protecting Etheria has never been more fun than in this Action Tower Defense adventure.
Dungeon Defenders II is currently in development for PC, Mac, and Linux. The PC versions will launch on Early Access on Steam on December 5, 2014 as a premium experience. In the future Trendy plans to make the entire Dungeon Defenders 2 experience free, supported by ethical in-game purchases.
