When you first fire up For Honor, you can either jump into the story mode or you can dive in with their multiplayer feature which was heavily featured during their Alpha and Beta testing stages. In For Honor, running in and button mashing isn’t going to allow you to win fights – you really need to be aware of your own weaknesses and capitalise on your strengths. It offers variety so that no two battles are the same. With each faction and with each warrior class, you are offered a different style of play and that is one of the things that For Honor does well. Finally, we have the Vikings and even though the Raider really does need to take top spot, the warrior that impressed me most was The Valkyrie, who is an all-female warrior race that use a spear and shield to deal out punishment. The Samurai did not really have many standout characters for me, but I enjoyed playing as the Bushido throughout the multiplayer matches, but for those of you looking for a challenge, I would recommend playing as The Shugoki: a brute of warrior that may be slow, but if he lands a hit then you really are going to feel it. The Lawbringer for the Knights is a counter-attack orientated fighter who is slow but can deal some insane punishment (plus they are really, really angry) and The Warden uses a longsword to deal punishment and is probably the most balanced fighter of the game and great to start with. The four different playable characters for each faction also offer a wide variety in gameplay. The Samurai are quick on the offensive and have speed on their side but they can’t take much of a pounding and the Vikings are the tanks of the game, with high offence and defence, but slow movement speed. If you decide to play as the Knights, then you are going for a balanced and well rounded style of play. Each race has their own traits and their own feats, which are very similar to powerups in other games. Now that I have, I walk away feeling somewhat satisfied.įor Honor is a third-person hack and slash game that lets you pick a character from three main factions: Knights, Samurai, and Vikings. After first being showcased at E3 2015, I have been following this game avidly for the last few years, waiting for my chance to get my teeth in. Yesterday saw the release of one of my most anticipated games of 2017, For Honor.
