Moreover, "For Honor" players will notice that unlocking during a specific attack will no longer be unparryable, which is known to be one of the most exploited glitches in the game. Add to this the fact that melee attacks will no longer drain a good amount of stamina whenever Revenge is activated.
The second season of "For Honor" is titled "Shadow and Might." It brings two highly talked about characters — namely, the Shinobi and the Centurion. The former will be joining the Samurai faction, while the latter will be part of the Knight's faction. The Shinobi boasts itself as being graceful and precise, whereas the Centurion plays as a chess master in the battlefield.
Aside from the aforementioned heroes, the said season also arrives with two new maps. These are called the Forge and the Temple Garden. Ubisoft is also confirmed to introduce various gameplay updates, though these were not specified.
