XDefiant has taken the First Person Shooter community by storm, with fans eagerly flocking to play Ubisoft’s new title. Impressively, XDefiant became Ubisoft’s fastest-ever game to reach 1 million unique players, hitting this milestone in just two and a half hours following its launch. This first patch update brings numerous fixes and improvements, including changes to the netcode and updates to the Practice Zone. Players who have been grinding XDefiant since its release on May 21st have noted these issues, and it’s great to see Ubisoft react quickly and make necessary changes.

XDefiant patch notes

Xdefiant Game modes

Sometimes players loading into the Practice Zone would spawn outside the world, in a hellscape, and now they (probably) will not.

XDefiant is finally out: It frustrated players on the first day

XDefiant, which is expected to rival titles like Valorant and Call of Duty, is out. However, some bugs in the game are annoying.

Devices

Fixed an issue where if the player died during the device deployment animation, their next deployed device would drop at their feet rather than be thrown as intended.

Netcode

That issue where you’d get hitmarkers on an enemy as they killed you, but their health bar still appeared full to you? The health bar display was wrong – you did damage them. This should be fixed now.

Localization

Fixed an issue where end-of-match UI text would display with the wrong orientation in Arabic.

Miscellaneous

The Practice Zone has been turned back on, but it’s possible weird things could still happen.
Fixed an issue that was causing low framerates with some AMD GPUs.

Xdefiant double XP weekend

While not noted in the patch notes, XDefiant will have a Double Weapon XP weekend starting from Friday, May 24 at 10 AM PT, to the same time on Tuesday, May 28. This extended Double Weapon XP weekend is good news for many players.

Weapon leveling has been a hot topic in the early days of XDefiant, with many players suggesting that it is too much of a grind to rank up their weapons. This Double Weapon XP weekend will be much appreciated by players who feel that way, providing a much-needed boost to their progression.

In summary, the XDefiant preseason update patch brings crucial fixes and enhancements to improve the gameplay experience. With the addition of the Double Weapon XP weekend, players have even more incentive to dive into the game and enjoy the improvements.
