It was announced by Ubisoft, that the For Honor Open Beta will be available to all players from February 9th to February 12th on current-gen consoles and PC.

Check out the open beta trailer of For Honor, showcasing the games’ features:

“Players can continue to hone their skills on the battlefield by joining the For Honor open beta from February 9th to February 12th. This beta will include the new Elimination mode, a best of five rounds four-versus-four match with no respawns. Elimination joins three additional modes playable in the open beta including Dominion, Brawl and Duel, and nine playable Heroes. At launch, For Honor will feature twelve playable Heroes and five different multiplayer modes.

The War of the Factions will continue into the open beta, giving more players a chance to fight for one of the three Factions – Knights, Samurai and Vikings. Following the closed beta, the Vikings led the War of the Factions, which pulled data from the performance of players across all three platforms. Although the Vikings are currently in the lead, Samurai and Knight players have the chance to lead their Faction to victory during the open beta and earn rewards when For Honor launches on February 14th, 2017.
