Taking Call of Duty head-on is no mean feat, but XDefiant is looking to remain defiant in its pursuit of first-person shooter superiority. For years, COD has fended off competitors in the genre, laying waste to other superstars such as Battlefield\u2014and XDefiant is looking to disturb the equilibrium. The cost of XDefiant could be a big factor in how successful the new IP ends up being and a contributor to its staying power. How much is XDefiant? XDefiant costs nothing at launch. It's completely free-to-play, meaning anyone with an online connection and an applicable format can play XDefiant. Unlike Activision Blizzard's premium release price tags for annual Call of Duty releases, XDefiant has launched in an F2P state. You can play the shooter without spending a penny. Does XDefiant have microtransactions? Just because XDefiant is F2P, it doesn't mean it's free of microtransactions. After all, revenue has to come from somewhere, so while you don't need to stump up any cash, the option to purchase cosmetics, bundles, and battle passes is available in the XDefiant store. If you want to support the game or get a headstart when the game releases, XDefiant offers Founder's packs. Here are all the Founder's packs and what they contain: Founder's Pack Name Contents Price Founder's Pack DedSec faction unlocked with all characters, Game Over legendary skin for Sebastian, Game Over legendary skin for P90 SMG, DedSec player card, Bronze Founder's player card, 1,000 XCoins, Five weapon XP Boosts $19.99 Founder's Pack Elite All of the Founder's Pack rewards, Silver Founder's player cards, 3,000 XCoins, 10 weapon XP boosts, preseason premium battle pass access, exclusive Masquerade epic skin for Singa $39.99 Founder's Pack Ultimate All of the Founder's Pack Elite rewards, exclusive Founder's Player cards, 5,000 XCoins, 20 weapon and battle pass XP boosts, preseason premium battle pass access, All four Year 1 faction unlocked as they become available, exclusive character and weapon cosmetics, More $69.99 There's a ton of hype for XDefiant after several years of development and the project led by former COD developers. Get a headstart on all things XDefiant by checking its playable factions and the best guns and loadouts.","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/XDefiant-Skins.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1223824"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2376"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1223824"}],"version-history":[{"count":10,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1223824\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1470227,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1223824\/revisions\/1470227"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/893731"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1223824"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1223824"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1223824"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=1223824"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=1223824"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=1223824"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=1223824"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}

Taking Call of Duty head-on is no mean feat, but XDefiant is looking to remain defiant in its pursuit of first-person shooter superiority. For years, COD has fended off competitors in the genre, laying waste to other superstars such as Battlefield\u2014and XDefiant is looking to disturb the equilibrium. The cost of XDefiant could be a big factor in how successful the new IP ends up being and a contributor to its staying power. How much is XDefiant? XDefiant costs nothing at launch. It's completely free-to-play, meaning anyone with an online connection and an applicable format can play XDefiant. Unlike Activision Blizzard's premium release price tags for annual Call of Duty releases, XDefiant has launched in an F2P state. You can play the shooter without spending a penny. Does XDefiant have microtransactions? Just because XDefiant is F2P, it doesn't mean it's free of microtransactions. After all, revenue has to come from somewhere, so while you don't need to stump up any cash, the option to purchase cosmetics, bundles, and battle passes is available in the XDefiant store. If you want to support the game or get a headstart when the game releases, XDefiant offers Founder's packs. Here are all the Founder's packs and what they contain: Founder's Pack Name Contents Price Founder's Pack DedSec faction unlocked with all characters, Game Over legendary skin for Sebastian, Game Over legendary skin for P90 SMG, DedSec player card, Bronze Founder's player card, 1,000 XCoins, Five weapon XP Boosts $19.99 Founder's Pack Elite All of the Founder's Pack rewards, Silver Founder's player cards, 3,000 XCoins, 10 weapon XP boosts, preseason premium battle pass access, exclusive Masquerade epic skin for Singa $39.99 Founder's Pack Ultimate All of the Founder's Pack Elite rewards, exclusive Founder's Player cards, 5,000 XCoins, 20 weapon and battle pass XP boosts, preseason premium battle pass access, All four Year 1 faction unlocked as they become available, exclusive character and weapon cosmetics, More $69.99 There's a ton of hype for XDefiant after several years of development and the project led by former COD developers. Get a headstart on all things XDefiant by checking its playable factions and the best guns and loadouts.","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/XDefiant-Skins.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1223824"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2376"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1223824"}],"version-history":[{"count":10,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1223824\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1470227,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1223824\/revisions\/1470227"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/893731"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1223824"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1223824"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1223824"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=1223824"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=1223824"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=1223824"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=1223824"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
