XDefiant Gets Delayed Once More, Aims to 'Lock' a Release Date After Upcoming 'Short Test'

Ubisoft's XDefiant seemed nearly ready to launch six months ago, but the game received a last-minute delay that left many fans puzzled. At the time, Executive Producer Mark Rubin explained:

Ahead of Fallout 4's upcoming next-gen update, the highly anticipated mod Fallout: London has confirmed that it is delaying its April 23 release date. The release of any Fallout 4 update has the potential to break mods, and the Fallout: London team is just getting ahead of any issues that may occur.

Today is Tuesday, statistically the day of the week least rife with wacky hijinks, whimsical calamity, or even, dare I say, madcap antics. However, if you want to buck tradition, you could do worse than playing What the Car?, the upcoming absurdist physics game from What the Golf? and What the Bat? devs Triband. You can do it right now, actually. It’s just gotten a free demo on Steam, alongside a proper release date of September 5th 2024. Don’t do it if you’re actually driving, though. That’d be lunacy. We only promote the fun kind of lunacy here, like the type shown off in What the Car?’s trailer at the Triple-i initiative.

Horror dating sim sequel from DreadXP and Joseph “Akabaka” Hunter has a release date.

Ubisoft just dropped another trailer for Star Wars Outlaws, this time focusing on the story. The new trailer spotlights the various smugglers and thieves you’ll be working alongside in a galaxy far, far away. The game also continues to look absolutely gorgeous, thanks to developer Massive Entertainment’s proprietary Snowdrop engine.

Curious about whether there would be a release date for? Let us take you through all the available details regarding the premier schedule of the second film in this franchise. E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial is a 1982 American science fiction film directed by Steven Spielberg. The movie revolves around an extraterrestrial entity that is mistakenly left behind on Earth. He is eventually rescued by a young boy named Elliot, who decides to keep him at his house. As Elliot and his siblings spend more and more time with the alien, they begin to develop an emotional connection with him. However, unbeknownst to the group, a determined task force has been deployed to capture their befriended alien.

Ubisoft has confirmed that XDefiant is delayed once again but teased that another public playtest is coming soon. Potential Call of Duty competitor XDefiant was previously intended to launch during Q1 2024, which ends on March 31.

The space-centered construction and management sim RimWorld has been consistently attracting players since it was fully funded on Kickstarter and released in 2018. Its next big expansion, Anomaly, will introduce tons of classic horror elements and additional sci-fi themes to the game on April 11.

GTA 6 is facing development troubles, leaving leadership “nervous” that the hotly anticipated open world crime-athon could be “falling behind’ expected schedules. That’s according to Kotaku, who were told by an anonymous source that studio heads are “worried” that the game could miss 2025 completely and not see release until 2026. Kotaku were told that the studio is still “aiming” for a Spring 2025 release date, but sources feel Fall of the same year is more plausible. However, the title could be delayed until 2026 as a “fallback plan.”
