Thanks to the developer, we know to fix the Victor-01 error code in XDefiant, you simply need to download the most recent update and restart the first-person shooter for everything to run smoothly.

Usually, error codes have multiple solutions and suggestions, but in this case, the answer comes from Ubisoft itself via the XDefiant Discord server—following one of the shooter’s patches.

“Be sure to update your game before trying to rejoin the servers,” Ubisoft said on Discord. “If you get a Victor-01 error, you need to update! Close the game, download the update, and you should be good to go.”

So there you have it! If you’ve been on the receiving end of Victor-01, get the newest update installed, restart the game, and XDefiant should be up and running again. If you have any doubts, you can always check the latest updates on the XDefiant server status.

If XDefiant is shooting straight for you, keep your skills and knowledge sharp by knowing how to slide-cancel and the fastest way to level up guns.
