A month and a half ago, producer Mark Rubin assured that XDefiant this would continue, although rumors were growing at the time about the end of the free-to-play shooter. He even hinted at support plans for 2025. But yesterday, Ubisoft research director and portfolio manager Marie-Sophie de Wobert announced the end of XDefiant development and the closure of three teams.
This ad they were registration of new accounts has been stopped. Current players can still look forward to the third season, which will be the last. It should feature a new faction, three new weapons, three new maps, or a new game mode.
The servers will be shut down on June 3, 2025. All Ultimate Founder’s Pack owners will be refunded. A full refund will also be provided to those who purchased something through microtransactions in the last 30 days.
The reason for XDefiant’s closure is the fact that, despite a strong start, it was unable to retain enough players to remain sustainable in the long term. At Ubisoft, they created XDefiant as a major competitor to Call of Duty, which would use content from the company’s other games.
“Despite a promising start, hard work from the team, and a passionate community, we have failed to attract and retain enough players to compete in the very challenging FPS gaming market.” – said Marie-Sophie de Vaubert.
