Trion Worlds announces the Silicon Valley expansion for Defiance will go live on August 5th, adding new content to the free-to-play TV tie-in MMORPG. Here's the outline of what this will bring: "Within the world expansion, players will find Karl Von Back has disappeared into Silicon Valley with his EGO-imbued followers, but it’s not the paradise they promised. The valley is overrun with Grid, and a strange cult, the Pilgrims of the Guiding Light, have taken hold in locations across the zone. As all new mysteries unravel, the populace of Silicon Valley calls for help, and only ark hunters have what it takes to face the trials ahead."
