XDefiant Update 1.000.014

Following yesterday’s Season 1 patch for XDefiant, the game suffered through performance degradation and other bugs that affected the game big-time. Today, Ubisoft San Francisco released XDefiant update 1.000.014, and this should introduce the frame rate fix for the shooter, alongside the start of Ranked Mode!

Note that this patch was released during today’s maintenance downtime this July 3, so if you can’t find a match, that’s why.

XDefiant Update 1.000.014 Patch Notes for July 3:

Update: Sadly, after our testing, frame rates are still an issue on the PS5 version of the game! While this patch does introduce Ranked Mode, performance on the PS5 version is still an issue, and Executive Producer Mark Rubin has confirmed that we will be getting another patch in a few days to fix this.

Outside of Ranked Mode, there doesn’t seem to be any patch notes as well.


While no patch notes have been released yet, Ubisoft did confirm an “emergency patch” is on the way:

We are expecting the PS5 frame rate issue to be fixed in this patch, and of course, Ranked Mode is indeed confirmed to be starting this July 3.

Once the official patch notes are out, we’ll update the article, so stay tuned! If you notice any other changes, leave a comment below.
