Trion Worlds announced today that it has introduced the most substantial update to Defiance's economy since launch. Dubbed The Exchange, the update's largest new addition is essentially an auction house with a fancy name. It features a set of functions that allow players to filter and search easily, as any good auction house should.

The Exchange is described as follows.

The Exchange has safely arrived on the new frontier, thanks in part to the hard work of the richest citizen of the new frontier: Varus Soleptor. Accessible anywhere due to the fortunate compatibility with EGO implants, you can now find the Exchange from the comfort of your EGO interface.

The Exchange allows you buy items that other ark hunters have listed for sale. Search through categories, sort, filter, and find your perfect purchase.

The following additional details about The Exchange were also provided.

  • Patron Defiance players will automatically receive 4 exchange sell slots with a maximum of 6 additional purchases
  • Non-patrons will be able to purchase exchange sell slots from the Defiance store for bits
  • Once an item is purchased or sold, players can collect items and proceeds from The Exchange interface in the My Orders or My Items sections
  • A 10% scrip fee is deducted from proceeds for all sales as a transaction fee
  • In order to post an item on The Exchange, a scrip fee is required up front depending on listing duration, rarity, and asking price
