Today Is a Sad Day for XDefiant Fans
In the month of June 2024, mere weeks after its release, the game XDefiant astonishingly surpassed a significant milestone, making it Ubisoft’s quickest title to amass one million unique players. As stated by CEO Yves Guillemot, XDefiant managed to draw in an impressive 11 million players during its debut month, with the studio anticipating further growth following the launch of Season 1. However, whispers started swirling in August 2024 about the game’s uncertain future as its player count started to dwindle. Despite these rumors being repeatedly debunked by XDefiant’s executive producer, Mark Rubin, it appeared there was some truth to them, as it was announced in December 2024 that this shooter game would be terminated in June 2025.
