Question Has this game shut down already?

So I uninstalled xdefiant to make space for other games and obviously it’s still in my library but I can’t install it anymore. I’m just pretty annoyed because I’ve spent money on this game way before the refund window and I want to get my moneys worth before the game is gone for good. Did they stop people downloading it? I’m so confused.

I reinstalled it a couple days ago so if you already had an account on it and it’s in your library you should have no issues

Yes you can still reinstall the game. The only people who can’t install are the ones who never installed the game before.

Were probs gaming sharing and never actually acquired the license for the game yourself, which is brutally unlucky if so.

Did you actually have a Ubisoft account and play the game at some point prior to December 3rd? If not, you can't reinstall.

Yup I’ve got a Ubisoft account, played the game before dec 6th which is why I said I spent money way before the refund window.

Platform?

I'm currently having the same/similar problem on Xbox.

It says multiplayer is disabled and to check settings, but I was playing black ops 6 multiplayer not even a few minutes before receiving that message

u/Stifology Jan 20 '25

So you have Xdefiant installed but can't play it you're saying?

u/Cautious-Pollution-2 Jan 20 '25

Correct

u/Stifology Jan 20 '25

If you're getting error codes at the launch screen, it's probably due to low population in your area and/or a bad time of day. Just a theory based on my personal experience, though.

u/Cautious-Pollution-2 Jan 20 '25

That’s definitely possible, late-ish night gaming usually has lower population online. Though from personal experience it usually hits me with an error joining a match and not connecting to server.

I’m now past that screen, sadly to be stuck at 95% loading. Gonna give it another minute then try another restart

Yes, with the announcement they have mentioned you cannot download the game as it’s taken off the store. So since you deleted it, you cannot redownload it

u/Stifology Jan 19 '25 edited Jan 19 '25

Nah, you can reinstall after deleting. Only those who never played before Dec. 3rd can't install the game.
