Didnt see a thread for this so thought time to make one

From Ubisoft - forhonorgame.com



Looks like threes three factions to play as (I think there are classes too within each faction) - Knights, Samurais and Vikings and its a objectives-based 4v4 game with an army of NPCs in the fray as well. Only seen Control so far...

The combat it what interests me, its very Bushido Blade with stances/blocks using the R stick - not exactly sure how the weapon play is but it looks very cool when you get that 1v1 or even 2v1 encounters. Once youre dead youre dead it seems too

Not sure of release date other than its a Ubisoft Montreal game - I never played AC: Unity so wondering if ideas from its 4 person co-op have been reused?

Man just thought if this had a Star Wars license it would be very cool - lightsabers only :)

Looks good.

Looks nothing like Bushido Blade to me though!

Bushido blade was a beat em up which was basically a 1 hit kill, right?

This looks more like Dynasty Warriors.
I'd say its a mix, though I don't really see the musou beyond the start of each game, after that it basically 4v4 with Bushido Blade style combat/defence.

From the videos it definitely looks like you have to win by killing the other team and the NPCs are there mainly to contest particular capture points.

Initial Impressions are that yeah the HUD is too busy, hard to see enemies stance in the heat of battle - also 2v1 is a lot harder than it looks. Not too sure what to do when outnumbered other than run...

Haven't played much though - feels solid and weighty
