The wait for XDefiant is over, as the game is finally coming out. Available on PC and consoles, we can finally experience what Ubisoft has been cooking over the last two years.
Given the high level of anticipation surrounding the game, there’s a decent chance you might experience server outages at some point during XDefiant‘s launch. The servers can also go down for maintenance or major content releases after the initial release.
How to check XDefiant’s server status
- Check XDefiant’s social media channels for updates.
- Check Ubisoft’s official Connectivity and Performance page for XDefiant outages.
- Check community hubs, like Reddit, as fans will also be reporting widespread outages.
Checking the resources above should be enough to see if XDefiant’s servers are down or not. If XDefiant’s servers are down, you have no option but to wait for them to come back online. In most cases, developers tend to be fast, so you can keep an eye on XDefiant’s socials to jump back into the game when the servers come back online.
Why are XDefiant’s servers down right now?
XDefiant‘s servers are currently down as the game is gearing up for its launch on May 21. XDefiant is scheduled to launch at 12pm CT on all platforms, and although it had a server test a month ago, it wouldn’t be surprising if, due to high demand, you can’t log in straight away.
For the latest and most reliable information when it comes to learning why XDefiant’s servers might be down, you can check out the game’s Twitter or Ubisoft’s official status page.
What to do if you can’t log in to XDefiant when servers are up
If you can’t access the game when the servers are up, there might be connectivity issues on your end. Trying out the following troubleshooting steps might allow you to jump back into XDefiant:
- Restart your router.
- Change your DNS settings.
- Use an ethernet cable if you’re on Wi-Fi.
