release delayed again after &#8220;inconsistencies&#8221; in Public Test Session"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>The official XDefiant Twitter account has announced yet another delay for the game&#8217;s release, without specifying a new launch date. <\/p>\n<p>This decision follows a series of internet rumors suggesting that the game might arrive as early as October 17.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">An update on XDefiant- <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/3orSnspmp6\">pic.twitter.com\/3orSnspmp6<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; XDefiant (@PlayXDefiant) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/PlayXDefiant\/status\/1711472235095925059?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">October 9, 2023<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p> <script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>In their tweet, the XDefiant team expressed gratitude to players who participated in the recent Public Test Session and acknowledged the positive feedback regarding the game&#8217;s fast-paced gunplay, unique maps, objective-driven modes, and iconic Faction roster. <\/p>\n<p>However, they also acknowledged certain inconsistencies in the game experience that need addressing before the Preseason launch. <\/p>\n<p>As a result, the Preseason of XDefiant has been postponed.<\/p>\n<p>The development team will continue to work on resolving these issues and conducting further testing to ensure the game lives up to its goal of being a top-tier arcade shooter. <\/p>\n<p>They have promised to provide more information about the Preseason and testing in the future.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the delay, it&#8217;s worth noting that XDefiant hasn&#8217;t had an official release date announced thus far. <\/p>\n<p>Given the proximity of <a href=\"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/call-of-duty\/\" title=\"Call Of Duty betting guide\">Call of Duty&#8217;s<\/a> release date, some speculate that the delay might be in the best interest of XDefiant&#8217;s success.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, there&#8217;s a strong belief that XDefiant may have a better chance of thriving if it launches during the first quarter of 2024. <\/p>\n<p>While this may seem like a long wait for some, it could be an opportunity for the free-to-play FPS to shine, especially when the initial hype around the latest Call of Duty has subsided.<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s also a recent leak suggesting that the game could potentially launch on October 28, 2023, although this should be taken with caution until officially confirmed by Ubisoft.<\/p>\n<p>In summary, Ubisoft has officially delayed the Preseason launch of XDefiant after reviewing feedback from a recent Public Test Session. <\/p>\n<p>This delay, while not specifying a new release date, aims to address inconsistencies in the game&#8217;s experience. <\/p>\n<p>The development team is committed to delivering a high-quality arcade shooter and will continue to work on improvements and testing. <\/p>\n<p>The timing of the release may be crucial for XDefiant&#8217;s success, and an early 2024 launch is being considered by some as a strategic move to avoid direct competition with other major titles.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/news\/\" class=\"contentLinkBtn\">ALL esports news<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The
