For those curious about XDefiant’s frame rate, it’s worth noting that it remains uncapped for maximum FPS. However, the game also provides the option to cap the frame rate, which can be beneficial for improving performance. You can easily adjust these settings from the game’s menu using your preferred specifications. 

Due to XDefiant’s online play, a stable internet connection is required. The PC version is also supported by NVIDIA Reflex, a technology that reduces system latency and offers better responsiveness in gameplay. This can be particularly beneficial in fast-paced games like XDefiant. Those with high latency may want to close other applications on their device to fix the problem. 

Besides the specs mentioned above, Ubisoft suggests having an SSD for the best experience.
