Ubisoft is giving away virtual currency for its free-to-play shooter XDefiant this month.

The virtual currency is being offered in the form of log-in bonuses, with 900 XCoins (worth $9) available to claim between today and September 24.

XCoins can be used to purchase in-game items including cosmetics and the game’s battle pass. A bundle of 1,000 XCoins currently costs $9.99 / £7.99.

a celebration of the end of XDefiant Season 1.

VGC’s XDefiant review called it “a confident shooter that’s far more than a Call of Duty knockoff”.
