XDefiant is a fast-paced arcade shooter that features factions inspired by some of Ubisoft’s beloved franchises. Players can experience playing as one of four factions: The Cleaners (The Division), Libertad (Far Cry 6), Echelon (Splinter Cell), and Phantoms (Ghost Recon Phantoms). Each faction includes three characters, but only one will be unlocked from each faction, while the others can be unlocked via missions.
