Since its release in 2017,
For Honor has continued to expand its world with new heroes, modes, and features like the dedicated servers and training mode. Six seasons of content, including regular in-game events, later, Ubisoft Montreal seemingly found a way to keep the faction war fresh and exciting with the upcoming inclusion of the
Marching Fire, For Honor’s largest expansion ever.
A new faction in the form of the Chinese-based Wu Lin Warriors is represented by The Jiang Jun, once a feared general, now uses his guandao to wreak havoc on the West. The Nuxia, a betrayed bodyguard, uses her hook swords to slay anyone who stands in her way. The Shaolin, a warrior monk forced to watch his monastery burn, now spreads the gospel with his staff. The Tiandi once sat fourth in line for the throne but was consumed by madness and killed his brothers, leading to the defeat of his empire.
