The Defiant Tools
Spec sheets and platform notes for an unreleased WWII FPS.
Use this hub when your question is “can I run it” or “which store should I watch,” not “how does stealth work.” The working tools are system requirements, platforms, and the wishlist checklist. Both are honest about holes: Steam still prints TBD for OS, CPU, GPU, and sound, while listing 8 GB RAM minimum, 16 GB recommended, and 100 GB storage.
What you can decide today
Store. PC players should wishlist Steam app 3184960. Console players can wait for PS5 and Xbox Series listings; both SKUs are confirmed by Hoothanes, 4Divinity, IGN, and Gematsu. Details sit on platforms.
Install size. Budget 100 GB. That is a Steam number, not a guess. SSD advice is not published; for an Unreal Engine 5 shooter you should assume a fast drive, but we will not invent a “recommended NVMe” line.
RAM. 8 GB minimum / 16 GB recommended is the only complete hardware pair. If your PC has 8 GB, treat that as a floor that may feel ugly in UE5, not a promise of 60 FPS.
Controller. Full controller support, including Xbox controllers, is already on the store. Accessibility flags include adjustable text, subtitles, color alternatives, camera comfort, custom volume, stereo, adjustable difficulty, and save anytime.
What you cannot decide yet
You cannot pick a GPU from an official chart. You cannot confirm Steam Deck. You cannot confirm cross-play for the PvE co-op mode. You cannot confirm a price. Those rows stay empty on purpose.
How these tools connect to guides
New players should still read Getting Started first. The tools pages exist so that article does not become a spec dump. After you know you have a supported platform, go back to the campaign overview or the weapons hub. Trailer addicts can live on updates.
Planned tools after launch
When a real CPU/GPU matrix exists, the requirements page will become a checklist you can match to your Steam hardware survey. When co-op player count locks, we may add a simple party-size table. We will not add unofficial FPS caps copied from random Discord screenshots.
Official store and social shortcuts are on links. If a number on this hub disagrees with Steam, Steam wins — tell us via the usual channels and we will correct the JSON source.
A last reminder: these tools will not tell you how to beat a chapter or which rifle to take into Shanghai. That work lives in How to Play, the campaign overview, and the weapons hub. Use this hub only for storefront and hardware questions, then leave.
