Amid ongoing player complaints and claims Ubisoft's free-to-play shooter XDefiant is underperforming, the publisher has insisted the game is "absolutely not dying" as it unveils plans to tackle a range of issues in an updated development roadmap. Ubisoft shared XDefiant's latest roadmap in a newly published blog post, starting with an update on the game's netcode and hitreg issues, and admitting it "still [has] a ways to go" as far as improvements are concerned.
