While For Honor successfully gave players the ability to clash swords, axes & spears with the world’s greatest warriors, we at The Game Fanatics got to wondering what other factions we’d like to see enter the gauntlet. While many warriors and factions presented strong fighting skills and honorable backgrounds, here are the Top 5 For Honor Factions we’d like to see in future installments.
Top 5 For Honor Factions We Want To See
The Romans
The “men only” Legion that is the Roman Army holds great strength and audacity with its shining armor and a brutal arsenal of weaponry. Fit for battle at any given moment, these warriors would be forced to march for 20 miles a day and go through survivalist training. Soldiers boasting their iconic shield and sword combo moved in lines pushing their foes back and using defensive tactics with their shield to deflect arrows. Not only would the sheer ferocity of these warriors be perfect in the world of For Honor but abilities such as using slingshots and shield ramming with your sword pointed towards foes would blend perfectly into the skirmish and elimination modes. Games like Ryse: Son of Rome have taken a small step towards giving Roman soldiers a place in video games but implementing them into For Honor would finalize that in-depth level of fighting not seen in standard fighting games.
The Greeks
PlayStation owners for years have seen the ferocity of the Greeks from Kratos in God of War so why not take these warriors and throw them into the arena in For Honor? Consisting of Hoplites holding 7-foot spears with shields and Spartan’s blades swinging at devastating speeds, the Greeks have the range and close quarters finesse which is essential to the combat in For Honor. While you may not be able to swing Kratos’ Chains of Olympus miles in front of you, there’s still plenty of oomph in the Grecian army. Who knows, pre-orders could contain a trojan horse ability and I’d say that’s worth a shot.
Apache Indians
Mongolian Warriors
Shinobi (Ninjas)
