How to invite friends in XDefiant

XDefiant is a brand-new competitive multiplayer FPS that allows players to test their skills against each other. If you’re looking to hop into a match with your buddies then here’s how to invite friends in XDefiant.

Ubisoft’s upcoming shooter XDefiant is already making a name for itself among fans of the FPS genre, with players jumping into the Open Beta to check out everything the game has in store, including iconic factions with unique abilities.

It’s even more fun to play XDefiant when your friends are in the match with you, and if you’re wondering how to get your buddies to join the game then we’ll break down everything that you need to know about inviting friends.

How to play with friends in XDefiant

In order to invite friends in XDefiant, you’ll need to go to the social tab of the main menu and search for their usernames. This will grant you the option to have them join you in the game and play.

Here’s what you need to do:

1. Launch XDefiant.
2. Head to the main menu.
3. Go to the social tab.
4. Search for the username of the friend you want to invite.
5. Select Invite to Group.

You can also send invites to buddies that have not yet played the XDefiant beta by sending an invitation link to their email or social media accounts. They can then accept the invite and join you in the game.

At the time of writing, there is a strange glitch plaguing the XDefiant beta that prevents players from being able to play the game with their friends. If you can’t invite your friend then it’s worth searching for a game at the same time and hopping into the same lobby.

That covers everything that you need to know about how to invite friends to play XDefiant.
