Ubisoft has announced that it due to several inconsistencies noted during the most recent Public Test Session, the upcoming pre-season for xDefiant has been delayed meaning the game has also most likely been delayed as it has the same launch window. The publisher also states that it “will share more information about Preseason and testing as it comes.” XDefiant will launch for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PC, and Luna.

The gull message via the game’s official Twitter account:
“Thank you to everyone who participated in our recent Public Test Session and continues to stand alongside us as we build XDefiant. The PTS once again showed us your appreciation for our fast-paced gunplay, uniquely crafted maps, objective-driven modes, and iconic Faction roster.
But it also surfaced some inconsistencies in the game experience that we need to address prior to launching our Preseason. So we’ve made the hard decision to delay the Preseason of XDefiant. The team will continue working to address these issues and testing them to make sure we deliver on our goal of being a best-in-class arcade shooter. We will share more information about Preseason and testing as it comes.
Thanks again for your support – we’re working hard to make something really special and we couldn’t do it without you.”
