XDefiant Won't Be Available On PS4 And Xbox One, Says Ubisoft (At Least Not Right Away)
The upcoming free-to-play FPS will launch first on current-generation platforms.
Pour one out for all those last-generation console players out there.
Ubisoft has announced that XDefiant will launch first on current-generation platforms, meaning PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. That means those on PS4 and Xbox One will have to wait, or might not even get a chance at all. The release of the upcoming free-to-play FPS on both consoles is still being considered, and no specific timeframe has been provided.
A small update as we're continuing to review feedback from the Open Session!
📅 Plan is still to launch later this summer.
🎮 Launch will be on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S. We're working on last-gen platforms for later.
👍 We'll provide more updates as they're available.— XDefiant (@PlayXDefiant) July 7, 2023
Also, there is no concrete date for XDefiant’s launch yet, though the team said the game is still on track to drop this summer.
