#Chivalry 2 platforms Pc#
PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X and S, and PC have been well-tested and are set to enjoy each other’s company in this game on Day 1. With cross-play available in Chivalry 2 right from the get-go, there was also almost never a lack of battlers in the 48- and 64-player lobbies. There are other scenarios where the Masons are on the attack too and overall, these conquest maps are just riveting as time winds down and you hope your contribution to the battle was enough. The Masons aim to run that clock down and block the Agathians at their objectives as much as they can. Each objective completion adds a bit of time to the clock every step of the way. One of my favorite levels in the game starts with the Agathians aiming to breach a Mason city with siege towers, burn tents in the outskirts of the fortress, guide siege ramps up to the inner sanctum wall, and kill a royal heir before time runs out. Battles in Chivalry 2 range from every-warrior-for-themselves deathmatches and team deathmatches, to massive objective-based conquests. Every scenario is backdrop with which to guide the Agathians and Masons into murderous combat. This game is a metal gnashing, limb severing, team-based hack-‘n-slash fest.

The story may not in be a story mode per se, but I do appreciate how much narrative context Torn Banner weaved into the battlefields on which you march and fight at every turn.Īnd that takes us to the core element of Chivalry 2. It's in the riveting pre-battle speeches given to you, the environmental storytelling of the maps and their decor, the lords and kings tasking you with laying down your life for them, and the peasants you slaughter as part of your charge into the city. This story is further strewn through the battlefields that you will partake in.

The Agathian Order is a supposed just faction of honor while the Masons are a vengeful and barbaric group that split off from Agatha to see it annihilated. There is only a little bit of overt and in-your-face story in Chivalry 2. What can I say about Chivalry 2 that I have not expressed with giddy delight when I have been playing the game in previous livestreams of open and closed betas? Will you hear my story of magnificent conquests stretching from bloody beaches to hotly contested throne rooms? Shall I regale the uninitiated with the tale of when I chopped a knight’s arm off and dropped them to their knees before lining their head like a croquet ball and using a halberd’s business end as the mallet to deliver just ka-knockings to their dome? This is a vast PVP like no other and the experience you'll have with it can only be limited by the sheer depth of ragdoll physics hilarity, give-and-take melee, and hefty impact each swing entreats you to at nearly every turn.
