XDefiant came as a mix of various video game features to create something unique. One of them is the different available Factions. With the launch, there are five available factions to choose from. These factions are from different franchises from other Ubisoft games.

All factions have their unique abilities and provide a different gameplay style and while the best way to test out what’s best for you is to play each of them, a quick look at their abilities will help players decide which one they want to do with first.
