XDefiant’s first season to feature Rainbow Six faction, ranked mode, and heaps of new content

Following leaks earlier this month, Ubisoft confirmed today that the GSK faction from the publisher’s other major shooter franchise, Rainbow Six Siege, will arrive in XDefiant with the launch of season one this summer.

The GSK faction will be playable when season one of XDefiant launches on July 2, with a full gameplay reveal scheduled for the day prior. The operators appear to be Bandit, Jäger, and Blitz from the GSG-9 faction in Rainbow Six Siege. Blitz is instantly recognizable with his trademark large police shield that uses flashbang technology. The gameplay trailer also features a faction ability that looks similar to Bandit’s Shockwire ability icon.
