Beginning this weekend, we’re hosting the May Mission Madness event!

These weekend events will run from 6PM EDT Friday to 10AM EDT Monday.
New Influence Vote: Choose the Next Map
We’re working on a series of map remakes from the original Dungeon Defenders, and we want to know which one you’d like to see first! Each map will come with a custom Incursion, a unique reward weapon/item and an iPWR 750 loot piece (similar to the Unholy Catacombs update).
This vote is between:
Crumbled Bulwark, a remake of DD1’s Ramparts!
The Buried Bastille, a remake of DD1’s Glitterhelm!
PlayStation 4 Roadmap
Here’s the latest PS4 roadmap. Keep in mind that this is subject and likely to change.
Early June:
Calling All Heroes + Unholy Catacombs update release
June:
Series EV2 + the next Mid-Milestone update release
At this point, it’s our goal to be caught up!
We appreciate everyone’s patience, and we’re super excited for the PS4 and Steam versions of the game to be on the same update cycle!

Sword Canister
Shotgun Blast
Bow Canister
High Calibur Round
Polearm Canister
Wave Knock Back
Magic Staff Canister
Slow moving, piercing shot
Tome Canister
Large Area of Effect
1st Ability: Anti-Gravity Bots
Mini Air Defense. Launch a bot into the air and then shoot it to blow it up at opportune times. Can have multiple bots in the air at once.
If other bots are nearby, the explosion will blow them up, too, so you can chain them together.
Only EV2 can shoot them to blow them up at the moment. Still trying to decide if that should be the case in the final version.
1st Defense: Proton Beam
When an enemy touches the beam, it’ll take damage in ticks.
Unlike DD1, EV2 can connect multiple nodes together.
We imagine we’ll see some…*ahem*...colorful creations on the Steam screenshots section.
2nd Defense: Torpedo Beam
A torpedo travels from node to node, dealing AOE damage as it hits each node.
- The more nodes it travels to, the more damage it’ll deal.
