If the spectacle of being able to play with 5 different factions with 3 characters each in XDefiant coming from 5 different games is what attracted you to the game, then you must be disappointed to know that the DedSec faction based on Watch Dogs 2 is not unlocked by default at the start of the game.
Unlike other factions which offer 1 character unlocked by default, the DedSec faction does not have any characters unlocked at the start of the game. While the other factions are impressive enough, who would not want to play as the legendary hackers coming from Watch Dogs 2? If you find yourself in the same situation then worry not, there are a few ways you can unlock the DedSec faction in XDefiant.
Founder’s Pack
The DedSec faction can be bought as part of the Founder’s Pack bundle. This bundle has 3 tiers you can choose from- Base (€19.99), Elite (€39.99) and Ultimate (€69.99). DedSec Faction is included with all tiers of the Founder’s Pack.
Unlock DedSec for Free
If you are not looking to spend your hard-earned money here, then you can grind your way to the DedSec faction. To unlock the DedSec faction, the game requires you to rack up 700,000 XP points. Yes, that is a lot and will require hours of playtime. From what we have experienced, you can achieve 5000-10000 XP points each game depending on your skills.
As mentioned earlier, other factions only start you out with 1 character each. Want to know how to unlock the remaining characters then click here.
