For Honor Dedicated Server Tests Beginning Tomorrow For Everyone
Announced today on Ubisoft's blog for For Honor, the weapon-based fighting game released earlier this year, dedicated server tests are being held over the next few days. Whether you own the game or not, you can participate in the test.
Ubisoft announced that For Honor would be moving to dedicated servers back in July, responding to criticism that the game had overwhelming host advantage and problems with lag. The dedicated server fix has both players connect to Ubisoft's servers to play rather than one player being the host and the other player connecting to them.
During the server beta test, players also earn rewards for the main game and be eligible for raffle prizes like t-shirts and For Honor statues.
For Honor was released on February 14 for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC. You can find our review for the game here.
