For Honor's latest update brings about a wide variety of tweaks and fixes, yes, but it's its newest hero, the mysterious Hitokiri, that's getting the spotlight this time around. Bearing an appearance similar to that of a certain From Software protagonist, the Hitokiri brings an entirely new niche to combat.
For Honor Update 2.08 also introduces an entirely new level - Canopy - where players will get the chance to rampage across an Asia-inspired landscape that's crucial for a great many myths and legends. Playable in Tribute, Skirmish, Elimination, Brawl, and Duel modes, this map is great across the board.
