For Honor's Exciting Year 8: New Heroes, Maps, and Legacy Pass

Ubisoft has announced a plethora of exciting updates for For Honor's Year 8, titled 'Forged in War'. The new year promises to deliver even more thrilling experiences for players, with a focus on exploration, legendary weapons, and the influence they have on those who wield them.

New Heroes Coming Soon

One of the most anticipated features in Year 8 is the introduction of two new gender-locked heroes. In the second half of Y8S2, a Samurai hero will be joining the fray, followed by an Outlander hero in the second half of Y8S4. This alternating body type release pattern continues from previous years, ensuring that players have plenty to look forward to.

Converted Maps and Dominion Game Mode

To cater to player demand for more map variety in the Dominion game mode, Ubisoft is releasing two converted maps by the end of the year. These Converted Maps take popular maps from other game modes and convert them for playability in Dominion. The best part? Your progress will be saved, allowing you to pick up where you left off.

Legacy Pass: Unlocking the Past

The Legacy Pass is a new feature that brings back Battle Passes from previous seasons, starting with Year 4's passes. Players who purchased the original Battle Pass can now unlock it as a Legacy Pass, while those who didn't have access to this content previously can purchase it for their chance at unlocking legacy content.

Tier 101 and Seasonal Focus

A tier 101 has been added to the Legacy Pass, which retrofits Battle Pass content for heroes released since then. Each season in Year 8 will focus on a legendary weapon, telling the tale of how it was forged and its impact on those who wielded it. Additionally, each season will highlight a specific faction and their unique culture.

Outlander Culture and New Content

In Y8S4, players can expect to explore a new Outlander culture coming to Heathmoor. The Year 8 Vision Video showcases the exciting updates in store for this year, including all-new Battle Passes with fresh content never-before seen on Heathmoor's battlefields.

Year 8: A Year of Weapons and Influence

For Honor's Year 8 is all about exploring the influence of weapons on heroes and their destinies. In Heathmoor, a hero's most valuable possession is their weapon, and Ubisoft has crafted an exciting narrative around this concept. While some surprises are still to be revealed, players can look forward to a thrilling year ahead.

With Y8S1 kicking off on March 14th, For Honor fans have plenty to anticipate in the coming months. Get ready to forge your path and shape your destiny on Heathmoor's battlefields!
