Hordes of Fate - Demo is now LIVE!

May 22, 2025

The demo for our new title Hordes of Fate is now live!

Venture once more into the world of Hand of Fate. We’ve just released a demo of the project the team at Spitfire Interactive are working on (a collection of Defiant alumni who’ve been working on their own since Defiant ceased developing) - a new approach to combining deckbuilding with action that we’re excited for you to get your hands on!

Hordes of Fate drops you once more into a world of memory, mythology, and mayhem. Bullet Heaven / Autoshooter gameplay combines with the ability to stack your deck, choose your encounters, and control your destiny.

This is only the beginning of the journey, but the demo is live now! Your feedback is critical to helping us shape the future of Hordes of Fate!

A new title in the world of Hand of Fate!

Mar 4, 2025

We’re excited to reveal our latest project, Hordes of Fate: A Hand of Fate Adventure, which blends Hand of Fate’s deckbuilding cards to life universe with a frenetic auto-shooter. Choose your hero, your weapons and encounter cards, and embark on a series of escalating challenges against hordes of foes to help restore the Dealer’s dominion over his court, one card at a time.

We’re thrilled to be returning to the world of Hand of Fate and expanding on this setting once again when Hordes of Fate : A Hand of Fate Adventure launches later in 2025.

Announcing the winner of the HoF2 Briarfolk modding contest: Verdant Emergence

Nov 15, 2018

We've enjoyed the community's response to the HoF2 Briarfolk modding contest, but today we're very happy to announce that the winning entry belongs to modder Dargenom, with his creation, Verdant Emergence. Dargenom went the whole hog, constructing a complete challenge full of unique encounters, new characters and a fun take on the established Briarfolk lore that surprised more than a few people in the office. Building on the base-defence structure of the campaign's Justice challenge, Dargenom took the concept and made it his own with a number of fun tweaks and innovations.

For his dazzling work, Dargenom will receive a limited collector's edition of the upcoming Hand of Fate boardgame, Hand of Fate: Ordeals, signed by the team at Defiant. Congratulations, Dargenom, and congratulations to everyone in the community who rose to meet the Briarfolk's challenge!
