The company didn’t address the inaccurate statements currently present on For Honor’s Steam and UPlay listings - which suggest some portion of For Honor can be played offline - but left little doubt about the game’s need for a steady network connection. But it seems that’s not the case.Īccording to Eurogamer, which received a statement from Ubisoft on Tuesday morning, For Honor’s campaign will require an internet connection just like it’s multiplayer component. The game also includes a single-player campaign which was believed to be an offline experience.
Like many modern releases, For Honor puts a heavy emphasis on its multiplayer component, which pits teams of one to four players against each other in a variety of modes that also incorporate AI-controlled creeps, control points and battles to be the last man/team standing. And the news isn’t likely to sit well with the game’s community particularly those who pre-ordered For Honor after reading language to the contrary (which is still present) on Steam and/or Uplay page.įor those who aren’t familiar, For Honor is an upcoming action game from Ubisoft Montreal that blends elements of the hack-and-slash genre with the team- and objective-oriented gameplay we’d expect from Dota 2 or League of Legends.
For Honor, Ubisoft’s upcoming hack-and-slash game, will require an active internet connection to engage with its single-player content, the embattled publisher announced this week.
