Chivalry 2 coming to PC in early 2020 with 64-player battles
Chivalry 2 is in the works at Torn Banner Studios and Tripwire with 64-player battles.
According to the studios, combat has been reworked so "people won't be able to 360 no-scope dismember you." Horses have also been added to the game.
Here's a list of features:
- Experience the thrill of combat in massive 64-player battlefields brought to life. Chivalry’s flagship Team Objective game mode brings narrative to multiplayer by having players battle across multiple stages in contextualized objectives, thrusting the player into the action of all their favorite medieval movie scenes.
- Players will immerse themselves in the sounds and sights of battle as they are thrust into iconic moments of the era, from the heavy thunder of cavalry charges to forest ambushes, sprawling castle sieges, and good old looting and pillaging. Survive waves of fiery arrows raining down from above, slay multiple enemies with a single strike and ride to war on horseback to claim glory by your blade
- Enhanced player expression brings thousands of new voice-lines, deep character customization and a wide range of emotes expanding upon the series iconic battle cries allow for an impressive range of epic and hilarious roleplay opportunities. Whether you want to experience the intensity of Braveheart or the comedy of Monty Python, all the romance of the medieval era awaits.
- Based heavily on player feedback, Chivalry 2 introduces a revamped, faster, and more fluid combat system that also offers an expanded range of creative choices, allowing players to perfect their own strategy and playstyle. The ability to fight through the pain while wounded or bleeding out and roll back to your feet from the ground or fight on even when down a limb gives players the chance to become a hero or die a good death.
Chivalry 2 is out in early 2020 on PC and will be released first on the Epic Games Store. It will arrive on other services the following year.
