XDefiant review – Overwatch meets Call of Duty in an Ubisoft theme park

The Guardian

It is not difficult to sum up XDefiant, Ubisoft's new free-to-play arena-based shooter. It's Overwatch crossed with Call of Duty. Or maybe Apex Legends crossed with Counter-Strike. Whichever comparison you go for, what it definitely isn't is a wildly original video game. But that's not a problem if it works.

#artificialintelligence

We are looking for a highly talented, motivated, and experienced person to work with us on XDefiant, a new multiplatform online multiplayer action game based in our San Francisco studio. XDefiant is a free-to-play, fast-paced arena shooter that combines intense gunplay with personalized loadouts and specialized factions, as teams of gunfighters battle for domination. As an AI Engineer, you'll focus on designing and implementing the AI players that our users battle in a variety of game situations. Your creations will challenge the players, teach valuable PvP skills, and provide smackdowns as needed. You'll extend the Snowdrop engine's capabilities with XDefiant-specific improvements and systems, designed to heighten the player's game experience.
