The viking-on-knight-on-samurai brawler For Honor is getting new characters, maps, and dedicated servers. Ubisoft announced its plans through February 2018 this morning on its weekly Warrior’s Den livestream.
Dedicated servers are a welcome announcement, as fans have previously complained about server issues. Ubisoft is hoping to solve for peer-to-peer stability and improve matchmaking, though it hasn’t yet announced an official date for when the dedicated servers will be available.
Season 3 will start next month, introducing two new heroes, two new maps, and a beta version of Duel Tournament ranked combat. Duel Tournament was available as a limited-time public beta earlier this year for PC players, and it features a bracketed tournament where players compete in qualifiers before working their way up to the finals.
4-on-4 multiplayer combat will launch with Season 4 in November, along with two more heroes and two new maps. A new Training Mode will also be available as unranked combat practice.
