XDefiant is a free-to-play first person shooter that allows players to buy cosmetic items using a currency known as Xcoins. There are a few ways to obtain free Xcoins, so let's dive into this guide to see how you can start stacking them up!
XCoins are the in-game digital currency in XDefiant, sold by Ubisoft in their game store. Currently, it costs around $10 for 1,000 coins, but the more you buy the more of a discount you get on them.
Whilst XDefiant is a free to play game, and there are no pay-to-win aspects, if you do want to get hold of the Battle Pass or buy unique character skins, weapon skins and other in-game effects, all of that costs XCoins.
Free XCoins From Ubisoft Challenges
Every week on XDefiant, a brand new set of challenges will appear on the Ubisoft Connect App. This is the same app that you use to launch your Ubisoft games, so you don't need to download anything extra.
If you navigate to the XDefiant homescreen, scroll down a little, you will come across "Timed Challenges". These reset once per week and are generally very easy to do.
They will give rewards such as Double XP Coupons, Double Battle Pass XP Coupons and Ubisoft XP.
However, they also give free XCoins!
The challenge usually involves playing a couple of rounds of a particular game mode, or getting X amount of kills, and as your reward you can gain up to 50 XCoins.
The XCoin Challenges don't appear every week- and usually they are limited to just one challenge per week when they do appear. This will likely make it a slow grind for you to earn enough XCoins to purchase the Battle Pass- but hey, it all adds up!
Don't forget! Once you complete the challenge, you need to login to the Ubisoft Connect App and click the "Complete Challenge" button, otherwise you won't get the XCoins added to your account.
Free Battle Pass XCoins
The Battle Pass contains 90 tiers of rewards and costs 1,000 XCoins to purchase outright.
You unlock tiers of the Battle Pass by gaining EXP in XDefiant games; the higher the score you get in a game, the more Battle Pass EXP you'll gain upon completing a match.
The Battle Pass changes each season, with each season lasting around 80 days. XDefiant Season One ends of September 23rd 2024.
The Battle Pass also has free tiers scattered throughout it. Some of those free tiers give a free 100 XCoins.
The Season One Battle Pass gives a total of 300 XCoins for free if you manage to unlock up to Tier 75.
If you do buy the Battle Pass, you'll also gain a total of 1,300 XCoins, which will allow you to buy next seasons battle pass for free!
