Players may remember Fiona from the game reveal trailer back in February. She is a versatile fighter armed with a longsword and shield as her weapons of choice. Fiona is ideal for players who prefer a more defensive playstyle, using her shield to guard against incoming damage while leaving her opponents open to counter-attacks. Her “heavy stander” unique skill with the shield allows her to block all incoming damage from all sources, but only for a limited time.

Lann is a dual sword-wielding battler, whose lightning-fast reflexes allow him to dodge attacks while swiftly retaliating back at his opponent. The returning fan-favorite from Vindictus (2010), focuses primarily on offensive skills and will likely be the champion of choice for those players aiming to to go all in with an aggressive playstyle. Make him angry enough and unleash “Lann’s fury”, a unique skill that enables him to rush past the enemy along with a devastatingly strong slash attack.

Vindictus: Defying Fate is a fast-paced medieval fantasy adventure that combines adrenaline-fueled combat with the depth and customization of RPGs. Play with a large roster of distinct characters, each boasting unique abilities and combos, including series favorites Lann and Fiona. Face fearsome Fomorian creatures based on classic Irish mythology and brace for cunning monsters that tower over your character, poised to challenge your prowess. Embrace the challenge, embark on your journey, and be part of the saga that defies fate!
