# Eternal Card Game Expansion Defiance Now Live

*Defiance introduces 278 new cards and several new card mechanics: Pledge, Amplify, Renown and Sites.*

**Denver, CO — December 13, 2018—** Dire Wolf Digital is excited to announce that [Defiance](https://www.direwolfdigital.com/news/chapter-25-defiance/), the newest expansion for free-to-play digital card game [Eternal](https://www.direwolfdigital.com/eternal/), is now available. Defiance tells the fate of the Kosul Empire as its exiled heir Svetya prepares to reclaim her crown and avenge her family.

Defiance will introduce 278 new cards offering three new card mechanics to explore: [Pledge](https://www.direwolfdigital.com/news/defiance-pledge/), [Amplify](https://www.direwolfdigital.com/news/defiance-amplify/) and [Renown](https://www.direwolfdigital.com/news/defiance-renown/). Pledge cards can be played as Sigils on their first turn, Amplify allows players to increase spell effects based on their existing power, and Renown abilities can be activated as soon as a spell or weapon card is played directly onto it. Defiance also introduces [Sites](https://www.direwolfdigital.com/news/defiance-sites/), a new card type that produces three spell cards; upon completion, its affiliated Hero card can be summoned afterwards.

The newest expansion will cap off a busy month in *Eternal* with the game’s official release on [Steam](https://store.steampowered.com/app/531640/Eternal_Card_Game/) and [Xbox One](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/p/eternal-card-game/9n7pl7d5cdj8?activetab=pivot:overviewtab). *Eternal* also saw the introduction of its esports program with a $5,000 cash tournament that will ultimately culminate into a $100,000 World Championship.
