As we continue to make our way through the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:E3 2023 schedule, today, it was Ubisoft's turn to flaunt its wares with its very own digital showcase 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Ubisoft Forward. During the show, we got a fresh look at the free-to-play arena shooter XDefiant, 🦩as well as confirmation that another beta is on the wa🔴y.

XDefiant is set to arrive late🗹r this summer, but before that happens, developer Ubisoft San Francisco will be holding an open beta to "address some of the feedback" from the recent closed playtest. This will be available to all players aౠcross PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X/S. It kicks off later this month on June 21 and runs until June 23.

"This is a short test, but we're opening it to everyone to get as much feedback as possible on our new net code, our controller tuning and, of course, to stress out the servers as mu💫ch as possible," explains executive producer Mark Rubin.

He also shared some details regarding the game's release, which will kick off with a six-week preseason that offers all of 𒈔the game's launch content, including 14 maps, five factions, 24 weapons, and more. This will be followed by the Year 1 content schedule, which comes with a bunch of new additions, including four factions, 12 weapons, and 12 maps. 

"That's one new map every month," Rubi🔥n says. "All inspired by Ubisoft's amazing worlds. I think you may really be surprised at where we go."
