Apparently, XDefiant, one of Ubisoft’s newest babies, has some good news to share. Enough to put a smile back on the community’s face. Fingers crossed.
Fans of multiplayer shooter games will be happy to learn that XDefiant, the free-to-play first-person shooter developed by Ubisoft, could soon welcome a new game mode. While this information has not been officially confirmed by Ubisoft, it was revealed through data extracted from the game by a user, Rogue TX, and relayed by VideoGamer.
A new mode on XDefiant
The mode in question for XDefiant would be Capture the Flag. A game mode that will be well known to veterans of multiplayer games. Appearing in popular titles such as Call of Duty, Team Fortress 2, Halo Infinite, and Overwatch, this mode involves players capturing the opposing team’s flag and bringing it back to their base to score points. The team with the most points at the end of the game wins. This simple but strategic mode requires good coordination and high tactical skills.
Currently, XDefiant offers five game modes: Occupy, Domination, Zone Control, Escort, and Hotshot. The addition of Capture the Flag would enrich this variety and could also strengthen the game’s competitive appeal. This update is planned for the first season of XDefiant, which has already seen great success with over 8 million unique players since its launch two weeks ago.
The introduction of classic game modes such as Capture the Flag shows the developers’ desire to enrich the gaming experience by drawing inspiration from past successes. These additions can revive players’ interest by providing familiar, yet appreciated challenges. This also highlights the importance of diversifying game modes to keep players engaged in the long term.
XDefiant recently received an update (Y1S0.2) that aims to fix various issues, including those related to social features and other aspects of the game. Ubisoft seems committed to providing a smoother and more satisfying gaming experience. Rn is quick to respond to player feedback and makes continuous improvements.
