Good question!
Our newest game mode, "Hot Shot", has you collecting tokens from fallen opponents. Collect the most, and you become the "hot shot," making you faster and deadlier than ever.
Be careful though, as you'll have a target on your back revealing you on the map. 🎯 https://t.co/1Y8UszISkO pic.twitter.com/vjCTF35nnn

As mentioned above, the XDefiant closed beta will now end on April 25 at 11 pm PT/(April 26) 2 am ET/(April 26) 2 pm HKT. Progression has been fixed correctly, so get out there and rank up to unlock weapons, attachments and more.
As for Hot Shot, it looks like a modified version of Call of Duty fan-fave mode Kill Confirmed, which is a good addition in my book.
XDefiant does not have a release date just yet, but is confirmed to be shooting out for the PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S and PC. For our impressions of the beta, head on over here.
