Trion Worlds reveals new player figure for open-world transmedia shooter since launch last month.

Open-world massively multiplayer online shooter Defiance has netted one million registered players, developer Trion Worlds has announced. The milestone comes one month after the game launched for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and PC on April 2.

Trion Worlds also shared a number of in-game achievements, saying Defiance players have killed more than 500,000,000 hellbugs to date. In addition, players have driven 50,000,000 miles in the game and battled one million Arkfalls.

Defiance is a transmedia effort from Trion Worlds and TV network SyFy. The show of the same name broke records at the network, netting 2.7 million viewers for its debut episode. The premiere was SyFy's most-watched scripted series debut for adults in seven years.
