Server Test Session

Test Details

As announced in our latest update, we are having a Server Test Session to help test our servers' status and provide critical information to prepare for launch.

Pre-load is available now, so you can be ready to hop into the test as soon as it's open. Starting April 19th until April 21st, the Server Test Session will be open, worldwide, to anyone on latest gen platforms and PC.

  • Start time: Friday, April 19th - 10 AM PT / 1 PM ET

  • End time: Sunday, April 21st - 10 AM PT / 1 PM ET

Server Test Session is available to players on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X | S.

How to download

PC

To join the Test Session, download the game on Connect.

PlayStation

To play the Server Test Session, just search for XDefiant - Server Test Session and download the game from the PlayStation store.

If you played an XDefiant test before and kept the game in your library, that is a different "product" just called XDefiant. Keep it as it will eventually be the final launch product.

Xbox

To play the Server Test Session, just search for XDefiant - Server Test Session and download the game from the Microsoft store.

If you played an XDefiant test before and kept the game in your library, that is a different "product" just called XDefiant. Keep it as it will eventually be the final launch product.

In addition, if you still have the Closed Beta build, this one will have a grey icon and is expired, you can delete it.

How do you know if you have the right build downloaded?

It's called XDefiant - Server Test Session and the icon is a big X.
