Tom Clancy's XDefiant is a real game and free to play, with a beta starting soon
There were rumours it was real and now they have been proven true, say hello to Tom Clancy’s XDefiant, a new free to play, multiplayer shooter from Ubisoft, check out the reveal trailer below.
When the game is released, it will come to PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC via Ubisoft Connect, with full cross-play available at launch.
When the game launches, it will offer up four factions, Outcasts and Cleaners from The Division series, Wolves from Ghost Recon and Echelon from Splinter Cell, that series Ubisoft has abandoned, unless they need a random tie in, in another title.
Matches will take place across a variety of maps featuring 6v6 arena battles and objective-based game modes like Team Deathmatch, Domination, and Escort. Defiants can be personalized to match playstyles; when a round begins, players can choose a faction with unique traits, abilities and ultra before arming their Defiant with primary and secondary weapons, attachments, and a device to complete their loadout. Loadouts can be altered while respawning, so players can adapt to what their enemies is doing and try to gain the upper hand.
There is a beta taking place for it soon, but it is only open to the USA and Canada, though global options are planned. But what say you, does another generic shooter appeal to you, or are you as over this as I am.
