Watch For Honor's New Shinobi And Centurion Classes In Action
As part of its plans for For Honor's second season, Ubisoft will be adding two new classes to the medieval fantasy fighting game: The Shinboi and The Centurion.
This week, Ubisoft showed off the pair in tandem trailers. The Shinobi looks like a long-range class (the second for the Samurai faction), wielding a Kusarigama (a short sickle on a chain) to keep opponents pressured from afar, reel them in for a kill, and teleport to confuse their opponents.
The Centurion, on the other hand, seems more about sheer brute force up close, wielding a Gladius short sword and using different parry and thrusting moves to get through an opponent's defenses and overwhelm them.
