XDefiant system requirements: Minimum & recommended PC specs

Ubisoft‘s latest FPS title, XDefiant, is upon us, and here are the minimum, recommended, 2K, and 4K system requirements needed to run the game on your machine.

XDefiant, a game from Ubisoft that is coined to be a “Call of Duty killer” will have a brand new open beta session in June, followed by a release in the Summer of 2023. Both players and content creators across the globe have praised the game, with many believing it could be a potential competitor to Call of Duty.

Being completely free-to-play, XDefiant has caught a lot of attention ever since a closed beta session was scheduled earlier this year. If you’re wondering what XDefiant’s system requirements look like, here’s everything you need to know.
