Came in with very low expectations for XDefiant but ended up having a pretty good time with it. Hope they come with a release date that's not too far away

I never heard of it before and they did a crap job of explaining what the game was since the video was just some shooting which reminded me of COD and streamers making generic comments. I am still confused on what the game is since they didn't explain it at all just said to try the beta lol

And not to get off on a tangent but, I honestly felt compared to Xbox Direct, the producers on stage for Ubisoft Forever had no real enthusiasm nor did the audience which turned out to be mostly Ubisoft game developers. Really lackluster of a show

It's mostly another generic shooter like COD, but felt pretty well made. Somewhere between COD and Valorant. Nothing new, but the maps, game modes and abilities were fun, and ran really smoothly for me. It's been announced for a long time so guess they expected their audience to know. If reminding you of COD is negative it's probably not for you though.

Cracked up when they started the show with a live number for Let's Dance. Their format is so outdated it's funny IMO. Xbox' show absolutely had the best presentation, but due to their comments leading up to the show I was expecting much more gameplay there.
