XDefiant's new patch comes with content from the next five seasons that won't see the light of day

We've known since the beginning of December that XDefiant will close its servers on June 3, 2025. Before that, the devs have decided to deploy a final patch with plenty of content.

In fact, this update for season 3 comes with elements that were originally planned up to season 8. There are three new factions, including one from Assassin's Creed and nine additional maps, including six arenas and three linear ones.

There's also an esport-oriented game mode, weapons and other cosmetic elements.
