Vindictus: Defying Fate Comes to PS5 in 2027

Vindictus: Defying Fate is coming to PS5. Sony announced the launch on the Japanese PlayStation Blog on November 12, 2026, in a post written by the game’s lead director. The PlayStation Store page opened the same day, with 2027 listed as the release year, and NEXON’s Steam page gives the PC build the same 2027 window.

The PC build has been in testing: the official channel still carries an “Alpha Test Final Trailer” from May 29, 2025, and the Steam page has no reviews yet. 2027 is the year now listed on both store pages, the console one is confirmed and the PC build is still being finished.

The game is a dark medieval fantasy action RPG inspired by Celtic mythology. Each hero has its own combat style, such as quick dodge-and-counter steps or a shield that punishes attacks at the right moment. Another charges up a heavy strike, and one soaks blows and holds the line. Weapons are crafted by hand and looks customized, so the hero ends up as yours.

Most of the campaign is solo, but multiplayer content puts you and other players against the same colossal bosses on a continent where one people has fought another for generations over an ancient prophecy.

No exact date, price, or edition breakdown has been announced. Sony’s post asks players to add the game to their wishlist. The 2027 date is on our Release Calendar, and the game is in our database.
