In order to take part in it (and pretty much to play the game), the player must choose a faction at the very start of the game. Much like the real game, the beta of For Honor introduced a taste of the multi-platform metagame event called War of the Factions. It recently had a closed beta, of which both Hans and myself took part. As such, I did a bit of digging to clear things up and to discover exactly how this ‘war of the factions’ will work.įor Honor is Ubisoft’s anticipated third-person, medieval, multiplayer game. Although the game promises that the choice of faction will not limit any gameplay, it is surely a very daunting choice to make for many (like, does it really not make a difference?).

This is, in part, because of the overarching ‘War of the Factions’ metagame. The very first thing a player is asked to do when booting up For Honor, is to choose a faction.
