Ubisoft announced today that the For Honor open beta will be available to all players from February 9th to February 12th on all platforms. In order to celebrate this announcement, Ubisoft released a new trailer dedicated to the game’s open beta phase that can be viewed below.
As the press release reads, this open beta will include the new Elimination mode, a best of five rounds four-versus-four match with no respawns. Elimination joins three additional modes playable in the open beta including Dominion, Brawl and Duel, and nine playable Heroes.
At launch, For Honor will feature twelve playable Heroes and five different multiplayer modes.
The War of the Factions will continue into the open beta, giving more players a chance to fight for one of the three Factions – Knights, Samurai and Vikings. Following the closed beta, the Vikings led the War of the Factions, which pulled data from the performance of players across all three platforms. Although the Vikings are currently in the lead, Samurai and Knight players have the chance to lead their Faction to victory during the open beta and earn rewards when For Honor launches on February 14th, 2017.
Enjoy!

The game is actually really fun. The base combat mechanics are deep and the mind games are really fun, domination mode in the beginning pretty stale but I hold out till you atleast reach lvl10 because once you unlock a few of your feats the game is like a moba and it gets really fun. Also, fight lvl 2 AI through custom matches because they are better than the players and they will show you pretty good tactics such as attack feinting etc. It took two days of almost continuous play to understand my class and also be competent enough to apply them.
For all my hate for Ubisoft’s player tested machinery like game production, I still loved playing this. This is some of the best and intense multiplayer experiences I’ve had and I implore you to try it.
I see you bought a new lambo with that ubi check 😉 don’t worry your secret offshore bank account is safe with me.
And here I was thinking I hid it really well. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/2dc5cf8cadc6091c7516182e48da8560b8358eaf41ef04e15366fe0beed915a6.png
surprisingly i liked the combat and right now i am wondering if i should get this. 4 of my friends that played in the beta bought it but it’s 90euro with season pass, i don;t feel like spending that right now on this. I dunno
Not really that into it after the closed beta to be honest.
