What’s Next – XDefiant Public Session 

Our Ubisoft Forward event is full of XDefiant announcements. First, there will be a public session very soon for you to play.

It will last three days and will be available for PC, Xbox Series X | S and PS5 worldwide.

Open session times

• The open session will begin on Wednesday 21 June at 19:00 CET.
• The open session will close on Saturday, June 24 at 8:00 CEST.

Start XDefiant

We plan to release XDefiant this summer, after the public session! After this trial period, we will announce the final release date. Here you have a preview of what you can expect from the first leg: preseason.

The Pre-Season will run for 6 weeks and will feature the factions and maps you’ve come to love during internal testing and closed beta testing.

1st year calendar

After the pre-season, XDefiant will have dynamics organized by season. The community will be able to enjoy new weapons, maps, factions and events every 3 months.  

Year 1 will include:

• 4 factions
• 12 weapons
• 12 cards

We look forward to bringing new content to players every season based on Ubisoft’s fantasy worlds.

And we’ll continue to share updates and news throughout the year, so follow us on  Twitter  ,  Instagram  , and our  Discord  .
