While Tom Clancy fanatics will have to wait until 2022 to get their hands on the rainbow six extraction, it seems that Ubisoft will have another game of Tom Clancy ready to enter the near future. Nowadays, the company announced the Xdefiant of Tom Clancy, a new sand shooter to play free that seems to have a strong focus on the player’s personalization.
Ubisoft San Francisco is a leading development in this game, with Mark Rubin, which acts as Executive Producer and Jason Schroeder as creative director. In today’s revelation trailer, Rubin and Schroeder described Tom Clancy’s Xdefiant as “fast-paced firefights meets Punk Rock Mosh Pit”. They also say that XDefiant will combine “realistic ging with personalized classes”.
There will be four classes to choose, known in the game as factions. The wolves serve as tanks, while cleaners are the assault faction. Echelon players will act as support, and the outcasts will provide teams with their healers. Rubin and Schroeder today said XDefiant’s factions are based on the Maverick groups of the Tom Clancy franchise and that we will see more aggregate classes to the game as time passes. The two also promise that much attention has been paid to how we arms look and feel in the game.
Essentially, XDefiant seems a return to the most traditional multiplayer games of FPS in a sea of Battle Royale titles. There is a lot that we still do not know about Xdefiant, to be honest, but it will not be much longer because we discovered more because Ubisoft is about to start the first beta test for the game.
That first beta will begin on August 5, but unfortunately, it will only be available for PC players in the US. UU and Canada (In addition to PC, XDefiant from Tom Clancy is throwing in PS4, PS5, Xbox One and Xbox Series X | S). You can register for these beta tests on the Xdefiant website, which you will have more information about the game in the coming weeks.
