We’ve included the info below, as well as the relevant tweets from the leakers. However, the images themselves were taken down by Ubisoft, which further adds to the leaks’ legitimacy.
XDefiant Upcoming Seasons Factions and Info:
Season 1 Faction – Rainbow Six Siege “GSG9 Tactical Unit”
Description: “These special operators from Team Rainbow are unmatched in the Siege Warfare”
Season 2 Faction – Far Cry New Dawn “Highwaymen”
Season 3 Faction – Assassin’s Creed-themed
Description: “An organised order of assassins who fought a continuous secret war with the Templars for over two-thousand years.”
Season 4 Faction – Ghost Recon Breakpoint “Wolves”
Description: “These special operators from behind the Iron Curtain served in Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege. They can absorb and inflict damage in equal measure.””
Aside from the factions incoming in the new seasons, the game’s Battle Pass details have leaked as well.
Season 0 (this is the game released, but the first season hasn’t started yet), will feature 50 tiers and will be priced at 700 XCoins for the Standard one, and 1200 XCoins for the premium one with 10 free tires.
Twitter user UBI_Frax had images of the tiers but these were taken down by Ubisoft.

Bear in mind, as with any datamined or leaked info, treat it with a grain of salt. That said, the fact that Ubisoft pulled the images adds fuel to the fire that these are legit. Also of note, previous info regarding the Rainbow Six Siege faction arriving in Season 1 is something we reported on before, as is with the Assassin’s Creed faction.
Hopefully, the dev team’s proclamation that we’ll be getting a game news update for XDefiant this week rings true. and it’ll be about the release date. Speaking of the release date, read on here to see the game’s Executive Producer explanation as to why the game got delayed indefinitely.
Thanks, TxLiimited, UBI_Frax!
