XDefiant is finally getting closer: a stress test starts on Friday and will run all weekend long

The XDefiant server stress test Ubisoft announced earlier this month will take place this weekend, beginning at 10 am PT/1 pm ET on April 19 and running until the same time on April 21.

The weekend event is quite a bit longer than the 12-hour playtest Ubisoft said was incoming on April 1, perhaps to encourage more people to jump in: 12 hours might be enough for developers to get what they need, after all, but it's not going to accomplish much on the public awareness front. Whatever the reason, players seem eager to find out what's been going on since the last time we looked at it, in 2023.
