XDefiant has been released worldwide, and after the success of the closed beta, the game is available for playing on PC and consoles. The FPS game has been developed and published by Ubisoft, featuring intense action and multiplayer mechanics. The developers have incorporated various elements from the Ubisoft universe, and the plot revolves around various factions.

Like all first-person shooters, XDefiant has a diverse range of firearms to help players get the upper hand against their opponents. The requirement for a particular gun depends on the situation. From striking down close-range opponents to shooting up the long-range ones, the game has all kinds of weapons. But all the weapons won’t be available to players as they start the game, and they will be able to unlock them as they progress.

XDefiant: A Class-Based FPS 

XDefiant is filled with multiple factions of heroes who are taken from different Ubisoft titles. The game includes Phantoms (from Ghost Recon), Echelon (from Splinter Cell), Cleaners (from The Division), Libertad (from Far Cry), and DedSec (from Watch Dogs).

These Defiants can be customized with different traits, abilities, devices, weapons, and items. The game gives a diverse experience to players by including different game modes such as Domination and Escort. Players engage in fast-paced, team-based multiplayer matches across a variety of maps and game modes inspired by the Ubisoft universe.

How to Unlock All Weapons in XDefiant

At the start of the game, you will only have access to a limited number of guns, but you will be able to earn the rest. This is done through XDefiant’s challenge system, where you will be assigned a series of tasks.

You will have to finish these tasks to get every loadout element available in this fast-paced FPS. XDefiant has a total of 17 weapons for players to collect and use to outplay their opponents.

Additional weapons must be unlocked by completing a list of challenges that we have provided in this guide. Players will be able to check them in-game under the Challenges section of the Profile tab on the main menu.

Although most of the challenges are pretty simple, some of them are a bit hard. Most challenges will just require you to use weapons in their intended roles. Once you’ve completed a challenge, you will be rewarded with that particular weapon. The weapon can be equipped in the loadout to be used in future matches. Here are all the challenges you need to complete and the weapons they unlock in XDefiant.
