XDefiant parties not working

If you noticed the above invite steps not working, you’re not alone. Closed beta participants have been consistently reporting a major issue where they can’t party up with friends.

The invite system has been malfunctioning, creating a lot of frustration for gamers that want to experience the cooperative shooter with friends. When trying to play with friends, gamers keep receiving an error that reads: Failed to Join party, Group not found.

Ubisoft is aware of the issue but so far there seems to be no solution.
