XDefiant Beta: Get Code and Play for Free - Here's How It Works

XDefiant is a new online shooter from Ubisoft, whose closed beta is attracting more and more interest. If you are one of the many gamers who would like to try your hand at it before its release, you don't have to wait any longer. In this article, you'll learn how to get access to the closed beta of XDefiant.

How to get an access code for the XDefiant beta

To get an access code for the XDefiant beta, you need to follow a few simple steps.

1. Register your Ubisoft account: If you don't already have an Ubisoft account, register at https://www.ubisoft.com/. If you already have an account, log into it.
2. Go to https://register.ubisoft.com/xdefiant-closed-beta/ and apply for the closed beta.
3. Choose your platform, on which you would like to test XDefiant (PC, Xbox Series S/X, PlayStation 5).
4. Confirm your choice and await the invitation. After completing these steps, all that's left for you to do is wait for the beta invitation to arrive via email.

However, this is not the only way you can get access to Ubisoft's latest game. There is also a second one, which involves Twitch.

How to get an access code to the XDefiant beta via Twitch Drops

Getting an access code for the closed beta of XDefiant via Twitch Drops is an alternative way to gain access to the game. It requires you to link your Ubisoft account to your Twitch account, and then watch XDefiant live streams on Twitch.

1. If you don't already have a Twitch account, create an account on this platform.
2. Link your Ubisoft account to your Twitch account.: Go to your Ubisoft account settings and select "Connect to Twitch." Follow the instructions to connect your Ubisoft account with your Twitch account.
3. Go to the channel streaming gameplay from XDefiant on Twitch and watch the live stream. Make sure the stream has the "Drops Enabled" tag.
4. Watch the broadcast for at least 30 minutes. Doing so will give you a code to access the XDefiant beta. It will go into your Twitch drop inventory.

It is important to make sure that your Ubisoft account is connected to your Twitch account and that you watch the broadcast live, as recorded broadcasts are not eligible for the access code.

How to use the code for the XDefiant beta

Once you have received your beta code, there is only one thing left to do - reclaim it and start playing. To do this, you need to go to https://redeem.ubisoft.com/xdefiant/. There you will find a box, where you need to enter the code you received. Then just follow the on-screen instructions, which will guide you through the process.

This will give you access to XDefiant even before the official release of the game. Have fun!
