XDefiant Players Can Easily Get Free Skin

Since its launch, XDefiant has been a really fun multiplayer experience. We are currently in pre-season and Season 1 should start fairly soon, and it will be interesting to see what new elements Ubisoft adds. It is possible that season 1 will be discussed during Ubisoft Forward 2024, and XDefiant players can get a free skin just by watching the live event for less than an hour.

There are things to look forward to with XDefiant. Ubisoft has confirmed when Bunny Hopping and Snipers will be nerfed and, as mentioned, the planned release date for Season 1 is pretty imminent. As for the rest of the game's first year, a leaker claims we'll get themed seasons involving Assassin's Creed and Far Cry.

While all of the above is exciting, tomorrow you'll want to make sure to tune in live to Ubisoft Forward 2024 so you don't miss out on a free weapon skin.
