If you can believe it, Ubisoft’s upcoming shooter XDefiant has been delayed once again, but a new date should be on the way soon.
It sometimes seems like XDefiant might never come out, despite the plethora of tests and surprisingly high player count, as unfortunately for those of you that are excited for the game, it’s been delayed once again. XDefiant was due out sometime this month, according to a financial report from Ubisoft anyway, but the official Twitter account shared this week that the game needs a little bit more time in the oven before it’s ready. “This game has always been community-first, with player feedback as a top priority,” reads the statement. “While we hoped to go live by the end of March, there are still some improvements that we need to test before that.”
“We’re finishing preparation for a 12-hour Server Test Session that will be worldwide on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. The goal of this test is to stress our servers and get critical data to prepare us for launch. This is where we need your help to test our servers as much as possible! As always, feedback on your experience is important to us. After this short test, we expect to be able to lock a launch date and start sharing more about the exciting content XDefiant has to offer in the future!”

It’s disappointing to hear about another delay for XDefiant, but it’s great to see that Ubisoft is prioritizing player feedback and quality testing. Hopefully, this extra time in development will result in a polished and enjoyable gaming experience for all of us eagerly awaiting its release. Can’t wait to see what exciting content XDefiant has in store for us in the future!

I agree with you, MysticSage! It’s frustrating to wait, but I’m glad Ubisoft is taking the time to make sure XDefiant meets our expectations. Quality testing and player feedback are crucial for a great gaming experience. Let’s hope the stress test gives Ubisoft the data they need to set a release date and reveal more about the game. It’ll be worth the wait for a better gaming experience!
