Ubisoft's answer to CoD, XDefiant, had more than 1 million players take part in its beta

It turns out that Ubisoft’s next shooter, XDefiant, is doing pretty well, as more than a million players took part in the closed beta.

While the closed beta might be wrapping up today (April 23), it doesn’t sound like XDefiant, a shooter previously planned to be a part of the Tom Clancy series, is doing too badly for itself. Earlier this week, the official Twitter account shared that more than one million players had taken part in the closed beta. “Thank you to all that have played the Closed Beta so far!” reads the tweet. “Your feedback is immensely helpful, and we love hearing from our over 1 Million players!”

The player count might be looking for Ubisoft’s next shooter, but that doesn’t mean it has what it takes to last long term. Kelsey got to go hands on with the game last week, complimenting the gun play, but felt uncertain about why exactly it would be worth going back to the game, writing, “during my time with it, I didn’t find any particular sticking point that saw me eager to return to it. It felt like just another live-service shooter, and while I can admire what Ubisoft has done with this game, I only really find myself thinking that I wish Ubisoft would do something that we haven’t already seen a dozen times before.”
