The upcoming MMO title from Trion Worlds “Defiance” will require a huge amount of space to run on the Xbox 360. The game’s initial DLC, set to be spread over five packs and launching between 2013 and 2014, is expected to weigh in at 10 GB, according to Electronic Theatre.
As part of the DLC, players will get a new playable alien species, new weapons and vehicles, missions, and other rewards.These DLC packs will require 10 GB storage on the Xbox 360 as well as Xbox LIVE Gold membership.
Owners of the 4GB Slim version of the console have two alternatives – either get an additional 320 GB Media Hard Drive, or buy a more spacious version of the console. Another option, of course, is to not buy the game.
Strangely, the game also supports Kinect.
“In Defiance, players embark on a journey into a futuristic online open world shooter where the survival of Earth relies on their skills as an Ark Hunter, as they level up in massive co-op battles and fierce multiplayer combat,” the company states.
The game is set to arrive alongside the TV show of the same name for the SyFy channel which is about a group of futuristic bounty hunters using alien weaponry to unearth treasure and riches. The TV show premiers April 15 while the game will be released on April 2.
