The XDefiant beta is live until April 25 with crossplay, so here\u2019s how you can hop in and play.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The XDefiant closed beta is active until April 25 after an extension added a couple more days, so join in by registering online. Annoyingly, registering via the website only gives you a chance of getting into the closed beta for Ubisoft\u2019s new franchise-mashup FPS, so you\u2019ll have to wait and hope that you get sent an access code. However, if you do get in, you can play in 6v6 matches on 14 maps, a few different modes, and you can represent various factions inspired by other Ubisoft titles. Here\u2019s what you need to do to get into the ongoing XDefiant closed beta.<\/p>\n

How to Access the Xdefiant Closed Beta<\/h2>\n

If you couldn\u2019t get an access code through Twitch Drops towards the start of the XDefiant closed beta, the alternative is to register online, although be aware that this does not guarantee you an access code. This process also involves using a Ubisoft account, so make sure you\u2019ve got the details handy if you already have one.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s what you need to do to get into the XDefiant beta before it ends on April 25:<\/strong><\/p>\n

1. Go to the XDefiant website and scroll down to the bottom to find the register section.
\n2. Choose your preferred platform between PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X, then click \u2018register\u2019. You can only choose one so make sure you pick the right one.
\n3. Sign into your Ubisoft account, create a Ubisoft account, or sign in with a Facebook, Xbox, Twitch, or PlayStation account. You may have to check your email inbox for a verification email to verify your Ubisoft account.
\n4. (Optional) Answer a couple of survey questions about other similar games.
\n5. Wait. At this point, you can only wait for an email about \u201clive phase updates\u201d for XDefiant on your platform of choice. There\u2019s no guarantee that you will get invited either but keep checking your inbox for any updates. Make sure have opted into Ubisoft emails on your Ubisoft account, as explained in this tweet.<\/p>\n

If you are selected, you\u2019ll get an email providing further details on how to actually access the XDefiant beta, but this is all you can do for now. Hopefully, you can get in as we found XDefiant to be surprisingly solid from what we\u2019ve played so far. While this beta is only available for PC, Xbox Series X, and PS5, the full game will be playable on PS4, Xbox One, and Amazon Luna, although no release date has been announced yet.<\/p>\n
