Ubisoft’s brand-new Call of Duty-like shooter XDefiant, which was designed in part by former longtime Call of Duty boss Mark Rubin, launched today–and it encountered major issues right out of the gate.
Players are reporting that they are unable to join matches in the free-to-play game. Ubisoft said in response, “Please bear with us while we look into servers and matchmaking!” Rubin, for his part, posted a silly GIF on social media with the caption, “Matchmaking servers go boom!” He said the team is working to address the problems.

Rubin works remotely from Los Angeles but flew into San Francisco to be with the XDefiant team for the game’s launch today, May 21.
