The future looks very bleak for XDefiant.
San Francisco, California – XDefiant launched in May 2024 with an impressive increase in players. Within a very short time, the game reached millions of players, exceeding all expectations. The positive results were also reflected in Ubisoft's financial figures. However, the current development shows a downward trend in player numbers. Ubisoft must now take measures to reverse this trend and ensure the long-term success of XDefiant.
All information about the impending end of XDefiant can be found on ingame.de.
This is what the numbers say: 8 million players in one week. XDefiant was able to celebrate this success when it was released in May 2024. For this reason, the shooter was also dubbed the “Call of Duty” killer. While in May people still felt indestructible, 4 months later the fear of a potential end sets in. Gaming insider Tom Henderson reports on Insider Gaming that the Ubisoft shooter now attracts barely 20,000 players – and that's on all platforms. Now Ubisoft has set a deadline.
