A brand new For Honor update is set to be deployed today (July 29) for all platforms. Unfortunately, the new update does come with some server downtime, meaning players will be unable to play for the duration of the server maintenance.

It was only a few short days ago that For Honor players received a fresh update with a brand new hero, Kyoshin. So, don't expect anything quite as exciting in today's update. There are however multiple changes to the new hero, Kyoshin. More details can be found in the patch notes below.
