XDefiant was a free-to-play first-person shooter developed by Ubisoft San Francisco that launched in May 2024. Ubisoft had one of their biggest ever game launches with XDefiant, attracting over 13 Million players in the first two weeks.
As the Lead UI Artist, I managed an incredible team of UX/UI Designers and together we developed the user interface for the game. During my nearly 3 years on the project, we built the UI from the ground up. As a team we released 3 season worth of content and updates for 6 months after the launch of the game.

As an individual contributor, I created high-fidelity mockups and art assets across MTX, Factions, Progression and Gameplay. I provided art direction for 2D cosmetic items like player cards and emojis, badges and emblems.
The comprehensive UI style guides that we developed were essential in onboarding co-devs and a remote workforce as they arrived on the project.
The UI team worked hard to champion accessibility and localization needs in XDefiant. Towards the end of the project we had a chance to sit down for an interview on the subject.
