Ubisoft\u2019s latest shooter is looking to break into the very competitive\u00a0free-to-play market\u00a0with\u00a0XDefiant.<\/a>\u00a0<\/em>This is a third-party studio that very rarely releases any of its games on a single platform, and a multiplayer shooter like this needs to be available in as many places as possible to succeed. However, if it\u00a0doesn\u2019t have cross-platform\u00a0support, then it might as well be exclusive since the player base will be split regardless.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Has XDefiant<\/em> made the critical error of not having any cross-platform support, or can you pick up this game knowing you will be able to find a match easily? Let\u2019s find out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Is XDefiant crossplay?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Yes, we are pleased to say that XDefiant does have crossplay available from launch. In other words, you can invite and play with any other user, no matter the platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You’ll be able to see crossplay in action when an XDefiant lobby fills up – all the icons next to each player name will show what everyone is playing on. Admittedly, as you can see in the image below, for me so far it’s all been PC so far, but you get an idea of what you’re looking for:\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to Enable Or Disable Crossplay <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

To do that head into\u00a0Settings\u00a0<\/em>and look for the\u00a0Matchmaking and Account<\/em>\u00a0option. In there you can switch off crossplay and confine your lobby to just the platform you’re currently on. Obviously if it’s a quiet patch and player counts low that could mean you take a little longer to fill a match. The option is there if you want it though so you can switch it back on just as easily.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Does XDefiant have cross-progression?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Yes, XDefiant supports cross-progression across all three platforms\u2013 PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. To enable cross-progression, you will have to make sure you are logged in on all your available platforms with the same Ubisoft account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Doing this will make sure your progress will be saved. Additionally, you can share the following items across all your platforms via cross-progression:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
