For Honor Season VII begins on August 2, and with it comes game-changing updates including a new map, two Hero reworks, and updates to ranked play. Two original Heroes – Warden and Valkyrie – are receiving major updates to their move sets to make them more versatile and viable for competitive play. A new map is also entering the fold, Secluded Keep, which will be available in Tribute, Skirmish, Elimination, Brawl, and Duel playlists.
Season VII will also refresh player progression and ranked play with the introduction of new legendary gear, 10 new Reputation levels, and two new ranked divisions, Master and Grandmaster, reserved for only the fiercest warriors. Additionally, Ranked Duels will be available outside of tournaments, which will begin rotation on a per weekend basis.
Additionally, to coincide with the launch of Season VII, all battle outfits will get a permanent 30% discount and a new Hero Trial will give players an opportunity to try any Hero they don't already own and buy them at a discounted Steel cost from August 2 – August 9. Xbox players can also try out For Honor for free from August 16 through September 15 as part of the Games with Gold program.
For Honor Season VII: Storm and Fury is the latest update to For Honor which included the implementation of dedicated servers, a revamped training mode, and the Visual Collection feature. In October, For Honor will receive its largest update yet when Marching Fire introduces four new Heroes from the new Wu-Lin faction, a 4v4 Breach Mode, and a variety of other features.
