XDefiant
Guides, news, and updates for XDefiant, Ubisoft's free-to-play FPS.
XDefiant is a fantastic game. I haven't been this excited about a shooter game since Apex Legends, and we know how that turned out.
Ubisoft has carefully crafted a product that defies the lazy norms that have crept into the first-person-shooter genre and has championed skill and creativity.
Aside from a few progression gripes, which can be easily ironed out, and the odd desync problem that is being actively worked on, nothing is holding XDefiant back from going the distance like Rainbow Six Siege.
