XDefiant players have been confused by a Mike-01 error appearing when they load into a game—though the explanation is simple.
Ubisoft’s first-person shooter has been live since May 21, attracting millions of players, but those trying to jump into action in XDefiant today (May 24) have been hit with a frustrating error.
Players across social media have been questioning why the Mike-01 error has prevented them from loading into the game and are fearful that it’s due to server issues.
Fortunately, that is not the case, and the Mike-01 error is occurring due to planned maintenance from Ubisoft, which was announced in a social media post on Thursday. The downtime was scheduled to begin at 6am PT/7am CT/9am ET/2pm BST and last an hour.
At the time of writing, XDefiant‘s servers have just gone live once again with the latest patch, which included a fix to the Practice Zone that left players “spawning in a hellscape.”
The biggest change to XDefiant with the return of the servers is the start of the double XP weekend for weapons, which should make grinding for attachments a much easier task.
The Weapon Double XP weekend will run until Tuesday, May 28, at 10am PT/11am CT/1pm ET/6pm BST/3am AEST (May 29).
