For Honor is getting a free trial this week

Today, Ubisoft announced that For Honor will offer a free weekend across all platforms starting August 10. All players will have full access to the game’s content for the duration of the free weekend, including 5 intense multiplayer modes and a campaign playable solo or with a friend in online co-op, as well as the entire roster of diverse heroes and unique maps.

The free weekend will lead into the launch of Grudge & Glory, For Honor’s third season and biggest update to date. Season Three starts on August 15 across all platforms and will bring new heroes, new maps, ranked play and a wealth of gameplay updates. All maps, ranked play and gameplay updates will be free for all players at the start of the season. The new heroes, the proud Highlander and the fearless Gladiator, will be available free for Season Pass holders on August 15, while all other players will be able to unlock them in-game on August 22 for 15,000 Steel.

For Honor offers an engaging campaign and thrilling multiplayer modes. Players embody warriors of the three Great Factions–the bold Knights, the brutal Vikings and the deadly Samurai–fighting to the death on intense and believable melee battlefields. The Art of Battle, the game’s innovative combat system that puts players in total control of their warriors, allows them to utilise the unique skills and combat style of each hero to vanquish all enemies who stand in their way. For Honor will continue to grow and improve with a new season launching in November alongside plans to introduce dedicated servers further down the development schedule.
