Chivalry 2 Officially Launches On PC, PlayStation, And Xbox Consoles
Don your armor and sharpen your swords because Chivalry 2 is now out on PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S.
“Chivalry 2 is a multiplayer first-person slasher inspired by epic medieval movie battles. Players are thrust into the action of every iconic moment of the era from clashing swords and storms of flaming arrows to sprawling castle sieges, and more. Dominate massive battlefields while catapults tear the earth apart as players lay siege to castles, set fire to villages, and slaughter filthy peasants in the return of Team Objective maps.”
The game builds on the existing mechanics of Chivalry: Medieval Warfare with a new and improved slasher combat system that combines real-time strikes with a free-flowing combo system. The new system allows players to take on multiple enemies at a time for faster-paced and more action-packed melee battles.
The launch version of the game also comes with two new maps: the Escape from Falmire Team Objective map and The Fighting Pit Team Deathmatch/Free-for-All map. The game also features full cross-play between PC and consoles.
“With the launch of Chivalry 2, we're excited to have nailed our vision of creating the ultimate medieval battlefield game,” said Torn Banner Studios CEO and Creative Director Steve Piggott. “It's all-out insane, epic 64-player online carnage that finally delivers to gamers the intensity of being in your favourite medieval movie battle scenes.”
“Chivalry 2 pulls you right into the action, delivering the satisfaction of an incredibly deep combat system, the cinematic glory of sieging castles, the chaos of a massive wave of knights smashing into each other, and hilarious Monty Python inspired voice overs. We can't wait to hear our fans roaring their battle cries on the battlefield,” Piggott added.
“When we started this journey two years ago, I knew that Torn Banner Studios would make a great first-person medieval combat game with Chivalry 2,” said publisher Tripwire Interactive CEO John Gibson. “Now that the game is done, however, I am blown away at what they have created. Chivalry 2 will redefine first person melee combat, and it has been a pleasure for Tripwire Presents to support Torn Banner in making this incredible game a reality.”
The Chivalry 2 Standard Edition is priced at $39.99 while the Special Edition is priced at $49.99 on the Epic Games Store, PlayStation Store, and Microsoft Store. Watch the official launch trailer below for your dose of flying heads, dismembered arms, and flying knights.
