Mark Rubin, an executive producer at Ubisoft, said in a post on Ubisoft’s website that XDefiant didn’t pass Sony and Microsoft’s certification testing.

Meta’s Threads just got proper search, but Taylor Lorenz at The Washington Post found that it doesn’t show results for some terms related to covid and vaccines as well as terms like “sex,” “nude,” and “gore.”
From the piece:
“The search functionality temporarily doesn’t provide results for keywords that may show potentially sensitive content,” the statement said, adding that the company will add search functionality for terms only “once we are confident in the quality of the results.”
That said, as my colleague Wes Davis found, as you’re typing in terms like “covid” or “covid-19,” you might see a prompt pointing you to the CDC’s website. But if you hit enter to search for those terms directly, the results page will still be blank.
Update September 11th, 8:37PM ET: Added details about CDC prompt.
