Ubisoft title For Honor is sure to define what “Battling” is but first it needs some testing. At Gamescom Ubisoft announced that alpha testing will begin on September 15 through September 18. If you still want to test out the game you can sign up here.
That’s not the only information Ubisoft released. Apparently you will be able to play as 12 different warriors that fall into the 3 factions of Knights, Vikings, and Samurai. All with different abilities and strategy to add to the battlefield. Here is a look on some of the different classes.

• Vanguards are well-balanced Heroes, with good attack, and defense capabilities and great versatility.
• Assassins are swift and lethal characters, great duelists with very good offense
• Heavies are the most resistant Heroes, their attacks are slow but deadly. They’re especially efficient for defending a point and annihilating AI enemies.
• Hybrids mix elements and characteristics of other types. They are advanced characters fostering uncommon tactics

Ubisoft also detailed the progression system, saying “At the end of each multiplayer match and each campaign mission, players are awarded XP that unlocks new combat abilities and new visual customization options. They also have the chance to loot armor and weapon parts on the battlefield, with specific stats allowing each player to adapt their gear to their playstyle while ensuring fairness and balance in multiplayer.”
