XDefiant, the free-to-play shooter aiming to shake up the multiplayer scene, has faced internal delays. But fear not, players, a potential release date has emerged!
XDefiant Release Date
A leaked tweet, reportedly from TxDefiant (now removed) and corroborated by UBI_FraxV2, suggests a release date around May 13th, 2024. This has some scratching their heads, as Mondays are uncommon launch days. It’s possible this points to a launch week commencing on May 13th instead of just the Monday.
However, Ubisoft hasn’t confirmed anything yet. Their latest official statement acknowledges missing the March target but emphasizes ongoing improvements and testing before launch.
Playtest Paves the Way for Launch
Prior to launch, Ubisoft plans a 12-hour global playtest on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC. This aims to stress test their servers and gather critical data for a smooth launch. While no official date is confirmed, TxDefiant (again, unverified) claimed the playtest would occur on April 11th, 2024.
Stay tuned for further updates as Ubisoft unveils the official XDefiant release date and playtest details!
