XDefiant is Ubisoft's first-person arena shooter that combines several of the developer's shooters into one. You'll find Factions from Far Cry, Splinter Cell, Tom Clancy's the Division, and many more as the game is updated throughout its lifetime. With the game being always online, you'll create a team of friends to take down enemy teams in hopes of earning a win.
