XDefiant error codes like Tango, Foxtrot, Delta, Mike and Bravo are all tied to various server issues. While services have improved since launch there are still ‘unplanned issues’ across PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X according to the XDefiant service status page, and intermittent ‘degradation of online services’ issues. Everything from connecting to the servers, unexpected disconnections and high latency can all be a problem when things are bad.

So, what’s going on and what can you do about it?

XDefiant error codes Foxtrot, Bravo, Tango, Mike and Delta

Most of the ongoing XDefiant error codes, Mike, Tango, Foxtrot, Bravo and Delta, all refer to server issues, with messages like ‘XDefiant services are not available at this time’. Ubi has been aware of the issues since launch and quick to acknowledge them:

The main fix generally is to basically keep trying - there’s nothing technically broken, just server and connectivity problems. Quitting and retrying should fix most issues if things aren’t completely down, so don’t wait on an error page to resolve.Ubisoftalso has a page of fairly broadgeneral fixesto try if you’re having problems:

The first two - checking the services and resetting your router are easy enough, and I’ve got more info on Xdefiant servers below if you want to check their status. Using a wired connection is obviously limited by the physical distance between your console or PC and the router (but it can fix almost all connectivity problems at the console end). While checking or enabling UPnP will depend entirely on your router’s specific instructions, so check those to find out more.

As I mentioned above we can look at what these various error codes mean onotherUbi games because they all use the same Snowdrop engine as XDefiant. Although, when you look at all of the ongoing error codes' previous appearances, it’s all server connection issues:

The XDefiant Delta error code is caused by the game being unable to communicate with the server according to details forThe Division 2andRainbow 6.

The XDefiant Bravo error code seems to happen when the connection with your account has been lost, according to thisDivision 2 error. The fix here is to shut down the game and reopen it.

The XDefiantservice status pagelists any unplanned issues, with messages like ‘degradation of online services’ to try and explain any problems. On PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X there are four main categories - Connectivity, Authentication, In-Game Store and Matchmaking. If all is good you’ll see statues like ‘no issues’ and ‘operation’, but if things aren’t working messages like ‘degraded’ and ‘outage’ can appear.

Obviously if you are having any issues, error codes or not, check the status page first to see if there’s anything officially wrong. TheUbi support Twitter pageis also good at keeping players in the loop when there are issues.
