For Honor: New Character Classes Leaked

The first two potential season pass DLC heroes for Ubisoft’s medieval fighting game For Honor have leaked online. Reddit user Bones404 posted the screenshots below on the game’s subreddit R/forhonor displaying stats for Ninja and Roman Centurion characters.

The image – which has the posters Gamertag scratched out – seems legitimate, as is backed up by the fact that both characters appear in the season pass art. If true, then assumptions can be made about each hero’s attributes and skills based on appearance and images that appear to their left.

Centurions were the professional officer of the Roman army

In his portrait, the Centurion looks to be holding a gladius (short sword) or a spatha (long sword), which makes sense. He also dons heavy armor, complete with an Imperial Galea that has an attached face mask.

The Ninja looks exactly like you’d think, dressed in typical Ninja clad black garb, wielding a kusarigama or chain sickle. This likely means the shinobi’s role will be that of medium based attacks with his sickles, as his armor is also not durable in close quarter combat.

The possible introduction of Ninja’s could lead to an excessive usage of the character, hopefully, the character requires a high level of skill

Multiplayer is obviously on the forefront of most For Honor players minds, but it should be interesting to see what effect these two characters will have on the campaign. Logic states that Centurion join the Knights and the Ninja join the Samurai, but there’s also the possibility of neutral or mercenary type faction as well.

While the rumor certainly has merit, nothing has been confirmed by either Ubisoft or Ubisoft Montreal Studios in regards to the leak. For more information be sure to stay tuned to the site for other For Honor details, as well as all of your Nerdy News!
