Is XDefiant free? Paid Founder's Pack version explained
Who doesn’t love a crossover? We’ve been spoiled in the gaming world as we’ve been fortunate enough to witness dream matchups with the likes of Mario fighting Link in Super Smash Bros: Ultimate and, more bizarrely, Bugs Bunny chancing his luck against Batman in Multiversus. Now, attention turns to behemoth developer Ubisoft as it merges several of its most beloved games into one with XDefiant.
XDefiant is a first-person arena shooter with fast-paced gunplay, in the vein of games such as the Call of Duty franchise.

There are five different modes on offer in the game as it stands, including Hot Shot, where you must collect a dropped item after killing an enemy, and Domination, which sees players capture different locations around the map, acquiring points for keeping them under their control.
