Ubisoft has today announced that the For Honor season VII: Storm and Fury will be released simultaneously on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One family of devices on 2 August.

The update will launch free and will continue the development teams’ commitment to implementing community feedback and will bring a brand new map, major Hero reworks, an update ranking system and more.

New players on Xbox One with an Xbox Live Gold subscription will benefit from For Honor being available in the Games with Gold due to be made available from 16 August

The new content includes:

New Map

One new map, Secluded Keep, will expand the battlefield. Once the personal retreat of a pious Lord surrounded by water, it is now a highly disputed outpost. Secluded Keep will be available in Tribute, Skirmish, Elimination, Brawl, and Duel.

Major Hero Reworks 

In the wake of the recent Hero updates and feedback from players, For Honor will continue to improve and balance the current roster, as two Heroes – the Warden and Valkyrie – will receive major gameplay updates to improve the versatility and efficiency of their respective move sets. 

Ranking System Update

Introducing two new divisions in the Ranking System – Master and Grand Master, reserved for the fiercest warriors. Players will also be able to monitor their progress with the new Ranking Leaderboard. To focus the community on the new leaderboard and Master divisions, players will be able to join Ranked Duel matches outside Tournaments. Tournaments will instead be triggered on rotation, starting on a week-end basis.

To coincide with the new season, a permanent 30% discount will apply to all battle outfits, as well as Hero trial offer available between 2-9 August which will give players the opportunity to try and Hero they do not own and buy them at a discounted Steel cost for a week.
