Hey Warriors!

After a small interruption, we’re now back to normal. No more being swarmed by tiny Ad Mortem men, or being surrounded by the high-pitched screams of the Shortmungandrs.

We hope you had fun in our fun-sized April Fools’ event! Here’s what’s in store this week:

[h2]Breach Slayer Challenge[/h2]



Starting on April 3rd, the Faction with the most Breach Takedowns will secure the best rewards. Whether you’re on the ramparts, going for the Guardian kill, or just escorting the Ram, make sure to get those Takedowns!

[h2]Emote Sale[/h2]



The Recognition Emote is on sale! You can, of course, use this Emote to recognize the skill of your opponent. You can also use this Emote after you have ledged them. The context does give it a rather different meaning, so please be careful.

[h2]Arcade Quest[/h2]



A strange poem has been found in the debris of a lost cathedral in the Blackstone Hills.

"...The heirs of Virupaksa. in Ashfeld.."

were Wu Lin destined to be felled..."

Face these Wu Lin heirs until April 9th!

[h2]For Honor Production Update[/h2]

A message to our community,

First and foremost, we hope that everyone is doing well and is safe at home during these times. On our side, the team is still hard at work to keep For Honor fully operational even though we are doing so from home.

We are proud of how quickly everyone on the For Honor development team has adapted to the situation. However, even with all our efforts during these times, this unprecedented event has slowed down our ability to effectively test our upcoming content. For this reason, we have taken the decision to delay the release of Year 4 Season 2 to June 11, 2020. This delay of 6 weeks gives us the time we need to adapt our testing pipelines to this new situation.

We know that this news is disappointing; we were all excited to be able to show you what was coming to For Honor for the upcoming season. However, we are confident this was the right decision for us to be able to launch the content as we intended.

On a positive note, the team is currently working on a plan to be able to bring back fan-favorite activities to compensate for this delay. Those activities will be available in May and we will soon share more details within our May roadmap.

We want to thank you for your continued passion and support. Stay safe everyone.
