XDefiant is a free-to-play shooter from Ubisoft

A love letter to fast-paced arcade shooters, if you’re up for a fight and ready for some intensity, XDefiant should well be able to provide it, especially as it lands on Xbox, PlayStation and PC as a free-to-play offering. 

Available to download for free right now from the likes of the Xbox Store (other digital storefronts should be able to sort you out too) is XDefiant. It’s the much anticipated shooter from Ubisoft that should well cater for genre veterans, newcomers or those who like to take their gaming to all-new levels. 

Get shooting with XDefiant’s cross-play 

Cross-play support is in house from the get-go as Ubisoft bring communities together, across Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5 and PC. This is however a current-gen only title so don’t expect to be found playing on Xbox One. 

Various factions await your joining in XDefiant, as you take to a variety of different maps, play through numerous modes and create a whole ton of mayhem. With about as much weaponry as you could ever wish for and the promise of further content drops as every new season lands, this 6-player teamwork-focused live game should well ignite the passion in anyone looking for a new shooter. 

Consider that Ubisoft have had a few great months in The Crew Motorfest, Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown and more, and there’s a chance the run could well continue with this one. 

Key features

  • Customized Loadouts – Choose from a large arsenal of weapons, attachments and devices to optimize the way you play. Combine any weapon with any Faction, and unlock new options as you play to perfect your playstyle.
  • Factions – Factions are drawn from iconic Ubisoft worlds and represent distinct classes, each with unique abilities and Ultras. Choose any character from any faction to assemble your team of 6 players. Change your Faction at any point during play to adapt to your strategy.
  • Maps, Modes, and Mayhem – Play in a diverse range of 14 maps at launch across several different arena and linear modes including Zone Control, Escort, Occupy, and more. Fight in casual matches or climb the tiers in competitive ranked mode.
  • New Content Every Season – Every three months will bring a new season that includes a brand-new Faction, new characters, new maps, new weapons, new cosmetics and events. As a live game, XDefiant will continue to deliver an exhilarating experience season over season, with a wide variety of fresh and fun content.

An Xbox gamer since 2002, I bought the big black box just to play Oddworld: Munch's Oddysee. I have since loved every second of the 360's life and am now just as obsessed with the Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S - mostly with the brilliant indie scene that has come to the fore. Gamertag is neil363, feel free to add me to your list.
