Ubisoft's new free-to-play first-person shooter, XDefiant, launched on May 21, 2024, at 6pm BST. The game features weapons and abilities inspired by popular Ubisoft titles such as Far Cry, The Division, and Splinter Cell. XDefiant is available on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. Ubisoft has outlined that the game will not include pay-to-win mechanics, focusing instead on in-game purchases for cosmetic items. NVIDIA Reflex technology reduces PC latency by up to 58% for more responsive gaming. However, the launch has been marred by issues, with many players experiencing 'unable to find match' errors, rendering the game unplayable for some.
