For Honor Gets New Marching Fire Hero Next Week

For Honor's Wu Lin faction, introduced in the Marching Fire expansion, will get a new hero as part of the game's Year 3 Season 4 content next week.

Immediately accessible to Year 3 Pass owners on November 7, the Zhanhu comes with devastating new Feats and a long, single-edged blade to deal damage with a bit of distance. The hero, playable as both male and female, is fast and powerful, relying on quick dodges and even quicker strikes to outmatch opponents. Those who don't have For Honor's Year 3 Pass can acquire the Zhanhu for 15,000 Steel starting on November 14.

Season 4 also introduces a new Breach map showing off a great Wu Lin fortress perched on a narrow mountain pass, as well as various Hero tweaks and Feat balances.

A Halloween event is preparing to wrap up in For Honor. Fangs of the Otherworld runs until November 1 and brings with it a plethora of themed loot, a new game mode, and much more.

Publisher Ubisoft has confirmed its plans to implement cross-platform play in "all the PvP games" it has. CEO Yves Guillemot said that the feature is "well on the way" during the company's latest earnings call. Only two of Ubisoft's games support cross-play at present: Brawlhalla and Just Dance 2019.
