Vindictus: Defying Fate is an action RPG being developed with Unreal Engine 5, set in the Mabinogi Heroes (Vindictus) storytelling universe. A new trailer was released, showcasing new characters, a formidable boss monster, and an intense battle scene. The next Alpha Test is planned for the summer of 2025, and players can now wishlist the game on Steam.

Since the Pre-Alpha Test in December, the team has added various zombie types, rebuilt combat mechanics, and introduced a skill system to enhance gameplay. The game will feature diverse mechanics such as housing, levels, traits, and character customization to help players survive and progress within the game.
