XDefiant Victor-01 Error Fixes

To fix error Victor-01 in XDefiant, first check for any updates to the game. If there are any, update it right away before trying again. This error can occur when there’s a software update for the game that you don’t have installed, so double-check you’re running the latest version.

On top of that, our recommendation would be to restart the game, perhaps also rebooting your console or PC, to see if that fixes the error. Otherwise, we would also recommend uninstalling and then reinstalling XDefiant, and then trying again.

If this still hasn’t fixed it, we would advise to check out the social media accounts of the developers of XDefiant, for example on X, to see if there’s any server maintenance underway.

Unfortunately, there’s not much else you can do except to wait for the developers to fix the problem so you can go back to playing.
