"Smoke blocks line of sight and disables aim assist, AI-targeted skills, enemy outlines, and the minimap for those affected."
— In-game Description


The Smoke Grenade is a device in XDefiant. The Smoke Grenade was added during Season 2 in the October 30th, 2024 patch.

Overview[]

The Smoke Grenade is a non-lethal grenade that temporarily provides cover through emitting a smoke cloud that will dissipate after a set amount of time. In addition to blocking line of sight, the smoke cloud will disable the aim assist on controller inputs, disable the automatic targeting of the Scrap Turret and Spiderbot, the tracking outline of the Intel Suit, and the minimap of any players inside the smoke cloud.

Patch Notes[]

October 30th, 2024 Patch
  • Smoke grenades make their debut on the battlefield. This new grenade type sows confusion among your opponents, blocking their line of sight while disabling aim assist, AI-targeted skills (such as Scrap Turrets and Spiderbots), enemy outlines, and the minimap. Also comes in handy for hiding an aggressive push or just adding a touch of chaotic je ne sais quoi to the battlefield.
