XDefiant Season One Reveals New Features and Enhancements
Ubisoft’s free-to-play shooter, XDefiant, is getting ready to launch its first season on July 2nd, and it’s bringing a ton of new content and improvements with it. The upcoming season will include a new faction, maps, weapons, and ranked progression system, as well as a new capture the flag mode.
One of the most exciting additions to Season One is the new faction, GSK, from the Rainbow Six series. This faction will bring its own unique set of abilities and weapons to the battlefield, giving players even more options to customize their playstyle.
In addition to the new faction, Season One will also introduce three new maps: Clubhouse, Daytona, and Rockefeller. These maps offer a variety of different environments and gameplay styles, from close-quarters combat to long-range engagements.
Ubisoft is also adding a new ranked progression system to XDefiant in Season One. This system will give players rewards for completing matches and ranking up, providing an incentive to keep playing and improving their skills.
Finally, Season One will also introduce a new capture the flag mode. This mode will pit two teams of six players against each other in a race to capture the other team’s flag and return it to their own base.
To celebrate the launch of Season One, Ubisoft is also offering free in-game items for players who log in within the next 48 hours. These items include three free eruption skins, which can be used to customize the look of your weapons.
XDefiant had a rocky launch, with server issues that made the online game unplayable. However, it’s continued on and, according to Insider Gaming, has been a big success for the studio. The upcoming first season is sure to bring even more players to the game, and with its new content and improvements, it’s sure to keep them coming back for more.
