XDefiant has a great number of weapons for you to choose from, and ACR happens to be one of them. To help you acquire it, we’re going to explain how to unlock ACR in XDefiant.
XDefiant ACR unlock guide
This assault rifle is one of the best weapons in XDefiant. It deals decent damage with each hit, and it’s great for mid-range combat.
How to unlock ACR in XDefiant
Just like most of the other weapons in XDefiant, such as the MP7, you need to complete a specific challenge to unlock the ACR. For this one, you’ll need to perform 10 Longshot Kills using assault rifles.
The challenge might sound easy, but it actually isn’t. Getting a Longshot Kill in XDefiant can be difficult as it will only count if your enemy is at least 30m away from you.
On top of that, your enemies will be constantly using different abilities during combat, so it won’t be a walk in the park.
Tips for getting Longshot Kills to unlock XDefiant ACR
To get successful Longshot Kills, we recommend playing on a larger map, as this provides you with an opportunity to stay as far away as possible from your target.
You just need to sit tightly in a spot from where you can easily spot targets and eliminate them.
As you will most likely have to use the starting assault rifle, the M4A1, we recommend leveling it up to unlock different attachments first, including sights. This will make it easier for you to get those Longshot Kills.
To track how many kills you’ve gotten so far, go to the Challenges tab in the main menu and access the ‘Base’ section. Now, from the Weapons section, select ACR. On the right side, you’ll be able to see how many Longshot Kills you have secured so far.
After the challenge has been completed, the ACR will become available for you to use. We also recently did a guide on the best ACR loadout, so you should check that out if you want to get the most out of this weapon.
That concludes our guide on how to unlock ACR in XDefiant.
