The first-person melee murders of Chivalry: Medieval Warfare will resume subsequent 12 months in Chivalry 2, a sequel introduced right this moment by builders Torn Banner Studios. After dabbling in magic with Mirage: Arcane Warfare, which flopped pretty hard, Torn Banner are returning to good, old style whacking people within the face with pointy metallic. Out with the magic carpets and in with horses. Fewer fireballs, extra facestabs. Have a peek within the trailer beneath.
“We have fixed the issues of the first game by redesigning our combat, animation and movement systems from the ground up and the result is a deeply satisfying and weighty physicality to every interaction,” Torn Banner president Steve Piggott claimed in right this moment’s announcement. “With an expanded combat moveset allowing for far greater player creativity, a re-imagining of our Team Objective game mode at scale and a focus on AAA level polish and visuals, Chivalry 2 is set to become the first true advancement in the genre.”
Also, it has some foolish mutilation jokes.
Chivalry 2 is coming to the Epic Games Store in 2020, printed by Tripwire Interactive.
As is customary for mid-tier PC games nowadays, Epic Games have paid for it to launch as a timed unique on their retailer. It’ll hit different shops after that 12 months of exclusivity ends. I’m positive Epic’s money helps fund a game that may appear a dangerous prospect after the failure of Mirage, although I do marvel how a lot that’s offset by people who deliberately keep away from Epic’s retailer. Mordhau is large on the first-person stabbing scene proper now too, which might assist develop Chivalry’s viewers or lock it up. But why am I writing games trade fanfic.
