Ubisoft has been hard at work on its upcoming free-to-play shooter xDefiant, which will be releasing on May 21, 2024 for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S. In a recent blog post, the French gaming giant shed some light on its stance on skill-based matchmaking and how it plans to use that for its upcoming release.
According to the post, Ubisoft will not be using traditional skill-based matchmaking for its players, instead, it would be utilizing different factors to ensure a smooth playing experience across different playlists. For instance, casual play will prioritize fast connection times and region while ranked play will prioritize Rank Points, player platform, and input devices to ensure a level playing field.
The wait for xDefiant has been a pretty long one ripe with many delays – but the game is finally looking to be on track for its imminent release. Ubisoft also detailed a list of weapons, factions, and maps that will be included with the launch version – read more on thatthrough here.
