News Ubisoft Insists There Are 'No Plans' To Shut Down F2P Shooter XDefiant

Here's the message in full:

"To be crystal clear there are NO plans to shut down after season 4. I've literally been in meetings as of last week to discuss our Year 2 plans. But, right now we are super focused on improving the technical experience (which includes netcode) and adding more content for Seasons 3 & 4. We have done very little marketing so yes our numbers are down but that is just to give the team the time to get the game in a better place before we do bigger spends on marketing to bring new players to the game and to bring back players that have left."

This follows a blog post in September reassuring players the game was "absolutely not dying". Here's part of it:

"Alright, with that out of the way I just want to quickly address the status of the game. i.e. is the game dying? No, the game is absolutely not dying. We know there are things we need to improve like Netcode/Hitreg and adding more content to progression, but the game is doing well. We just want it to do better...Ubisoft is very much behind us and has allocated more resources to the team in order for us to do that."

If you do want to give XDefiant a go, it's a free download on Xbox and other platforms like PlayStation and PC.
