This is a shame. The map designers deserve a LOT of credit. Their understanding of arena maps, flow, and balance far exceed CODBLOPS 6. Those maps aren't bad, but it's obvious how much better these are, with only a couple of exceptions.
funfact: ubisoft developers are great but the corpo management is ass. short development time forced them to cut corners for pretty much all their games.
Doing well and selling enough cosmetics to be profitable are 2 different topics. Game could be amazing gameplay wise but if they don't attract the cosmetic sales theyre losing money.
All cosmetics are freely available to all players by default. Everything is autocompleted right away. The store is inactive and you can't buy anything anymore. They're just releasing all content they had planned for free to everyone now.
I don't think all this content would have saved XDefiant or brought it back, but man this is a way to go out. Too bad the Assassins showed up too late.
Honestly this game wouldn't be dead if they thought the game through and after they fully got done with making the game with not as many glitches they had and then put it out for people to play it would've been a good idea. Also this game is a very fun game however in my opinion I think some of the powers are OP and it would've or would be better if they remove all powers or make all of the powers OP. They did nerved some powers but not all. Again this game would be alive and awesome game of they thought it throughly.
@@slayo710 nah, ow player count is nose diving real hard for 2 weeks now, and it's going to be like that if blizzard keeps on f ing up now that they have a real competition.
I don't understand why people need to put negative criticism in every single thing and always have high expectations, it's a game for f sake just simply learn to enjoy it, Ubisoft has their own way of working things out and it's unfair to discredit so much hard work that was put into it. I love playing this game even with it's flaws, cause it's really fun! Not that Ubisoft would hear me out, but i hope in the future a game like this comes out.
It’s a good timing to play this game. Yes the game came out mid to most people’s eyes but to me and player who are not looking to play COD for our mental health with this game gives us another chance to an FPS differently.
People were enjoying this much more than any other shooter at the time. Shame its being killed. It could be a good long service game if they kep it up and its got really good quality gameplay
@@lament22 it will once they announce it closing down its game over bro they already waited another season too try gain more money and players it obviously didn't work even less people are playing it now it wouldn't make sense too announce closing of a game lose more players then don't close it
3rd season looks the best, I love the AC Odyssey and Valhalla theme maps. Such a waste it was canceled.... My only critique of the game is that Factions should be faster to unlock besides paying, netcodes should have been fixed sooner, and it should have had better-looking paid skins like COD (or AC-level store skins). They should have focused on monetizing shiny cool skins versus making the game so grindy that it incentivized to pay (like factions).
I really grind this game in the beginning. I’m pretty upset the fact it’s shutting down so I deleted it entirely. How much I want to play season 3 it’s not worth it. It will lead me to be more upset. Why bother.
I know the trend of gaming now is seasonal content and drip feeding gamers but the fact they had so little initially but kept a lot of the stuff in the chamber is disappointing. I had fun playing it (I felt like XP felt like a grind but whatever lol)
All cosmetics are freely available to all players by default. Everything is autocompleted right away. The store is inactive and you can't buy anything anymore. They're just releasing all content they had planned for free to everyone now.
Wait isn’t this game shutting down soon?
It is shutting down but they said they’d release the new season anyways. I don’t even think you can download the game anymore.
Everything is free
"My death was... greatly exaggerated."
Yes
They shutting down on June 3 2025

@@dt6esdff413 Massive is another fav of mine, yea Ubi has hostages not studios at this point if they just LET THEM do what they want
Idk why this game didn’t do to well, it was pretty fun

@@aelinstue9431yeah I played like 40 hrs of this game and never put a penny in
Ubisoft did the bare minimum to keep it running and expected to magically print money for them. Pretty much what happened with R6 Extraction.
Lie again
Not on steam
a little early for April fools isn't it?
Its the shutdown party, everything is free including cosmetics of all sorts. And refunds for the last 6 months of purchases.
Bc they are releasing all the planned content for the game for free as a swan song for it?
"Reports of my death are greatly exggerated."
The game is officially closed, new players cannot download the game
Absolutely wild they’re still revealing paid cosmetics for a game which is already canceled.
Ubisoft 🤡
All cosmetics are freely available to all players by default. Everything is autocompleted right away. The store is inactive and you can't buy anything anymore. They're just releasing all content they had planned for free to everyone now.
All these are free. Read description.
Its free. They cant charge for anything. They are refunding 6 months of purchases
lol classic reactive comment fully null and void based on info op could have found in 5 secs.
What's sad is that this actually looks pretty good and they're shutting down the game soon
Looks? Meaning you didn’t play it? Play it I promise u gone change yo mind
Needs to be kept alive. It is a good game Ubisoft, don’t give up on it.
Then give them your money bruh
@@jeremybrown9611 Does such a studio really have no money? Lol, or do they just have bad leadership?
Both
I have over 300hr in the game and it was all for nothing 😅
Me too, man. 😂 I was really enjoying the game.
Every game has it's life cycle, unfortunately. The only important thing is if you had a good time 🙂
@AbysswalkerASMR Absolutely it's a damn shame it's getting shut down
At least we all had fun 😢
@@AbysswalkerASMRwouldn't even call it a life cycle, died to soon
I don't think all this content would have saved XDefiant or brought it back, but man this is a way to go out. Too bad the Assassins showed up too late.
Ubisoft doing what they do best…. Beating a dead horse
Its the shutdown party, everything is free including cosmetics of all sorts. And refunds for the last 6 months of purchases.
the items are all free
Quick, everyone play this again while CoD is still crap.
After this update I can confirme Xdefiant has somw of the best maps in the shooter panorama
Facts. These maps are 200000000x better than any bo6 map tbh
🤡
@brad8122 aw poor autobot cod fangirl
Dead Game Updates?
Its the shutdown party, everything is free including cosmetics of all sorts. And refunds for the last 6 months of purchases.
Absolutely wild
Dead Cat bounce
The new factions and maps look incredible! The balance changes mentioned have me curious-how do you think they’ll impact competitive play this season?
it makes sense ubi releasing the faction from a game that they made sure that killed in a game that is already dead with literally counting days...
U think u made a funny?
2:15 or to keep you playing after we shut the servers down

I wish they will not give up and will keep this game.
AC just screams like running and gunning few clips into a person... you now the IP is dead when they use it in a game like this
Remember when people were calling this game the Cod killer?
Same shit is happening with marvel rivals. People saying it's the ow killer but it too will fade I'm sure.
@@slayo710LMAO keep dreaming. Marvel Rivals can exist solely because of the Marvel characters that will regularly release.
@slayo710 marvel rivals shits on OW2 so no. XDEFIANT is ghosts in 2024 (outdated with modern aspects)
@@slayo710 nah, ow player count is nose diving real hard for 2 weeks now, and it's going to be like that if blizzard keeps on f ing up now that they have a real competition.
Isn't it shutting down in a couple of months?
whoah I thought this game is shutting down?
Its the shutdown party, everything is free including cosmetics of all sorts. And refunds for the last 6 months of purchases.
Could you please provide the title or a brief description of the video so I can tailor the comment accordingly?

I hope this will turn around to the Franchise and for Ubisoft a lot of jobs will be lost if they blew this one
When you think Ubisoft cant get any lower, they breach the floor somehow.
That's that R6 Siege in them.
All Of This is Free for the shutdown party even the cosmetics
I wish we could just purchase this game instead of letting it die
People were enjoying this much more than any other shooter at the time. Shame its being killed. It could be a good long service game if they kep it up and its got really good quality gameplay
Ubisoft should jist make a single player shooter with multiplayer, instead of oversaturating the market with another arena shooter.
i have a feeling this game isnt gonna get shutdown
@@lament22 it will once they announce it closing down its game over bro they already waited another season too try gain more money and players it obviously didn't work even less people are playing it now it wouldn't make sense too announce closing of a game lose more players then don't close it
The game is already on life support. Most of the skin here is p2w. Grinding a single cosmetic will cost you a loooot of time.
A shame, this looks better than bo6
An assassin with an ak. Such immersion
The moment Modern Day ends and becomes a metaplot...
Told ya I'd work with guns
3rd season looks the best, I love the AC Odyssey and Valhalla theme maps. Such a waste it was canceled....

They are taking advantage that Cod bo6 player base is kinda dropping.
Imagine if ubisoft didn't miss manage this game or made food games instead of making slop in order to keep there 20 000 employee ship from sinking
Какой смысл от этой игры, если вы её закрываете через пол года?
XDefiant was pure fun and it will definitely be missed
Throw this game into a battleroyale as a final send off, guranteed it'd do better than Warzone is right now
What's the point even if all the cosmetics become free and such when the game is shutting down? Are you able to play this game offline?
I really grind this game in the beginning. I’m pretty upset the fact it’s shutting down so I deleted it entirely. How much I want to play season 3 it’s not worth it. It will lead me to be more upset. Why bother.
all this just to shut it down after this update wtf lmao
Bruh now they bring in the assassins in this a little too late for that
They are trying to salvage their loss i respect that
meanwhile everybody that made this got fired. Good job ubisoft
Make great single player games with a multiplayer mode
I know the trend of gaming now is seasonal content and drip feeding gamers but the fact they had so little initially but kept a lot of the stuff in the chamber is disappointing. I had fun playing it (I felt like XP felt like a grind but whatever lol)
There still many factions to be present in this game.
I called it i seen this coming i knew Assassins Creed was gonna be a part of XDefiant at some point
no one can play it anymore...UBISOFT: WE NEED AN TRAILER!
Game really wasn’t that bad. Unfortunate that they have to shut it down
Honestly I was just waiting for them to add more content but it was coming so slowly that I stopped playing
So after 3 seasons yall finally add the bread and butter of y’all entire company bc who tf care about the farcry characters compared to assassin creed
WAIT. YOU ARE SHUTTING DOWN THE GAME AFTER LAUNCHING THE ASSASSINS IN IT???? WE COULD HAVE HAD MODERN ASSASSINS!?!?!
All this cool stuff just for the game to be gone in June is crazy
Ubisoft leads are rly trying to milk what they can shamelessly before putting another game down
Prestige System for a dead is crazy😂
they have Assassins? that would be awesome!🤩
Imagine spending your hard-earned money on a game that will shut down.
i see the next ubisoft move...far cry 2 original trailer in 480p and new datum for next week in comic sans font! BEST PROMO EVER!
Looks like someone didn’t get the memo
This feels like too little way too late the game is already announced to be getting shut down.
Lol I thought they killed the game already
Thats all good but is there any point playing this game no more at is delisted and going of line
I'm just here for the intro song, anyone know it??
Still charging cosmetics for a dying game is wild
All cosmetics are freely available to all players by default. Everything is autocompleted right away. The store is inactive and you can't buy anything anymore. They're just releasing all content they had planned for free to everyone now.
Imagine to write a comment before using your brain
Try IT the next time trust me its not That hard 😂
@ gotcha
Its free, clown 🤡
READ THE DESCRIPTION BRUH
1:39 is it just me? it looks like a dust 2 door
If they're gonna add these large updates why not just let people keep downloading the game? lmaoooo doesn't even make sense
Like the game, played it. Bad lobby times
I thought this game was really good.. sad to see it shut down
Modern day AssaSsin’s Creed before GTA6?
Working on a game that’s shutting down makes no sense
It's work that was already done. Good God dude. Learn to think.
wait i cant download the game?
How the hell are you gonna show us something, but we're not gonna keep it for long??!
It's free, the hell you complaining for?
Dear game developers that make multiplayer only games, stop adding content to games that you’re gonna shut down very soon, paid or free shit.
Do you realize how ignorant you gotta be to complain about free stuff?
cancelled heartland for this to be shutdown after 1 year
i thought this "cod killer" was shutting down lol
Can’t wait
Ubisofts downfall can't come soon enough
Looks great. Unfortunate its shuttin down
Uhhhm? Was this a scheduled release or something, because 🤣
This didn’t age w… wait? 14 hours ago?
I stand by my original statement.
Where is FFA
This should have been season 1
he runs like eivor
Bruhhhhh this is annoying, these some clean cosmetics and skills coming, only for the game to get shut down :/
Wait it's not shutting down anymore? Let's go!!!!
It is but if you un-installed it you can't access it
The game is shutting down June 3,2025 so idk 🤷♂️
This looks overpowered
Cue the simpsons meme *stop it…he’s already dead*
Wait what's the point the game Is dead
Marvel Rivals way better.
Ubisoft just need to go away at this point.
Grow up dude. You can literally not interact with their content rather then act like a damn child
Why a new season? This game is dead!
Im not gonna lie this is great stuff but it's too little to late.
Game is close it’s online June 5 why the hell would anyone buy anything from them
It's free, maybe a few minutes of research
Why... They keep saying "to come" and "beta modes" lolol
Mybe if this season does well they wont shut ot down it is a good fun game
