Ubisoft’s sword fighting game For Honor is highly anticipated, and the company announced today that the open beta is coming soon. The beta will run from February 9th through the 12th with the official launch happening on the 14th. The For Honor beta includes four modes: Dominion, Duel, Brawl, and Elimination, and 9 heroes. The full game includes 12 heroes and five game modes, so while the open beta does not include the entirety of the game, players will be able to experience the majority of content for free in the open beta before making the decision to purchase.

Though there is a single player and co-op campaign, For Honor’s gameplay mainly revolves around PVP and features visceral and rewarding combat using a variety of classes and melee weapons. Players can choose between Knights, Vikings, and Samurai and have several combat options available for each class. Opt for one-on-one combat in Duel mode or team up with a friend in 2v2 Brawl combat. 4v4 combat is also available in the form of Skirmish and Elimination modes. Although there are five total game modes in For Honor, the core gameplay is focused around Dominion, a 4v4 control point battle with additional AI soldiers.

Those looking to upgrade their PC’s specs in order to run For Honor at higher graphics will be happy to hear of a partnership between NVIDIA and Ubisoft. Players who purchase an NVIDIA branded PC, a  GeForce GTX 1080, or a GTX 1070 will be able to choose a free code for either For Honor or Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon: Wildlands.

There hasn’t been much buzz surrounding Suicide Squad since its release in February. Warner Bros. was let down by the game’s underwhelming sales, but they remained committed to turning their live service vision into a reality. An exciting new DLC update has been released, introducing The Crown Prince of Crime to the game.

As the game’s first live season begins, players will have the chance to take on Green Lantern and, in the end, unlock The Joker as a playable character. Which Joker are you referring to? This is quite intricate. Furthermore, players can look forward to the inclusion of a Battle Pass, a variety of new shop items available for purchase, exciting Incursions and Strongholds to partake in, as well as an expanded selection of Infamy Sets and Notorious Gear to amass.

While Sony may not classify Gran Turismo 7 as a live-service game, the team at Polyphony Digital certainly approaches it with a similar mindset. The game continues to impress with every new update, and although v1.44 may be smaller compared to previous versions, it still manages to enhance the already extensive content of this simulation racer.

The update, now available worldwide, introduces three new cars: the Audi R8 Coupé V10 Plus ’16, the Lamborghini Urus ’18, and the Toyota GT-One (TS020) ’99. Furthermore, it introduces three fresh events to World Circuits, an extra menu to conquer in the GT Café single-player campaign, and a collection of livery stickers inspired by the upcoming Highspeed Étoile anime, set to debut next week in Japan.
