XDefiant is Ubisoft's latest first-person shooter (FPS) title and currently hosts a closed beta phase. Several content creators and streamers took this opportunity to showcase the upcoming game and how it works. This resulted in an influx of viewers flocking towards the streams, beating the combined viewership of Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone 2.

The stats were observed on Twitch's browsing page, listing different game categories with a total viewer count. This development is quite concerning as Activision recently launched its third seasonal update for its most recent series.

Let us take a closer look at XDefiant's Twitch streams that beat the latest Call of Duty titles.

Ubisoft announced the development of XDefiant and followed it up with a closed beta phase. Players can get activation keys for the beta test and experience the newest FPS creation by watching the streams. The game appears rough around some edges and will require a list of changes before public release.

However, the community seems excited about another fast-paced multiplayer title that might compete with Call of Duty. The arena shooter's streams on Twitch crossed the total viewership of Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone 2, boasting its impact even in the early stages.

The FPS player base has always been interested in rapid improvements to the gameplay experience while preserving realistic gunplay. The announcement, alongside some in-game clips, attracted a considerable percentage of the community and helped it gain a lot of traction.

The trio-squad shooter game quickly became a hot topic, and the closed beta release attracted even more players. Ubisoft granted keys to some of the content creators and enabled gift drops for every viewer watching one of those streams,
