Ubisoft’s free-to-play competitive shooter XDefiant has captured the hearts of many players since its launch in late May 2024. The community is thriving, with players actively participating in matches, engaging with seasonal content, and earning rewards. However, as time progresses, players are already speculating about what the future holds for the game. Recently, a data miner uncovered information that hints at the arrival of new factions in XDefiant in the coming year.
According to the leak shared by Rogue TX on Twitter, the alleged new factions include Assassins (Assassin’s Creed), Operators (Ghost Recon Breakpoint), GSG9 (Rainbow Six Siege), and The Highwaymen (Far Cry: New Dawn). While these factions may seem predictable for a live service game like XDefiant, the real surprise lies in the possibility of factions based on The Crew and the Rabbids.
While a driving-based faction from The Crew may seem out of place but plausible, the idea of a Rabbids faction raises eyebrows. Imagining humans wielding guns facing off against humanoid rabbits known for their peculiar behavior is comical. The thought of actual Rabbids in the game is intriguing, even though it is more likely that the faction will consist of humans dressed as Rabbids.
If the Rabbids faction becomes a reality in XDefiant, it is expected to bring chaos to the game. Whether they are equipped with bunny ears or unique sound effects, the addition of the Rabbids would undoubtedly shake up the gameplay experience. The leaked hints, although some have been removed due to DMCA filings, suggest that the Rabbids faction might still be in the concept stage. However, the possibility of such a quirky addition is enough to keep players hopeful and excited for what Ubisoft has in store.
Introducing the Rabbids to XDefiant could open up a world of possibilities for even more eccentric crossover factions. Just Dance, another popular Ubisoft title, could potentially make an appearance in the game, further enhancing the diverse and wacky roster of factions. The prospect of such unexpected collaborations adds an element of surprise and fun to XDefiant, making it a game to look out for in the future.
As players eagerly await official announcements from Ubisoft regarding the potential new factions, the idea of the Rabbids faction continues to spark curiosity and anticipation. Whether it’s humans dressed as Rabbids or the actual characters themselves, the addition of such a unique and quirky faction promises to bring a fresh and exciting dynamic to XDefiant. Only time will tell if the Rabbids will eventually join the battlefield, but until then, players can only dream of the chaos they may bring to the game.
