The reviews for XDefiant have finally been released, and they paint a mixed picture. The game has received average scores from critics, with many pointing out that while the gameplay is enjoyable, it lacks creativity and innovation. Furthermore, there have been significant complaints regarding the game's heavy monetization practices, which have detracted from the overall experience for some players.
XDefiant, developed by Ubisoft, promised a fresh take on the multiplayer shooter genre. However, it seems to have fallen short of expectations. Despite its shortcomings, some players might still find the fast-paced action and tactical gameplay engaging. For a detailed review, you can read IGN's take on the game here.
