According to the insider, XDefiant attracted its first million players within 2.5 hours of launch. No other Ubisoft game has ever reached this milestone so quickly. Two days later, the audience of XDefiant exceeded 3 million people.
Henderson noted that on the release day, XDefiant's online presence surpassed 500,000 concurrent users, leading to server issues, but these problems were resolved within eight to ten hours. Currently, the online presence has decreased but remains high at 300,000 users.
Henderson also compared the results to those of the highly popular Apex Legends. That game attracted its first million users in eight hours and 2.5 million users within 24 hours.
