Victory in multiplayer matches awards points to your faction, which determines how the overall narrative of the game's inter-factional war proceeds. These are more similar to the multiplayer structure of shooters than traditional fighting games. Multiplayer modes involve one-on-one or team-based battles. In this mode, you can control your character's precise position and observe your opponent for telltale signs indicating their next move. In the single-player campaign, you battle your way through hordes of enemies to achieve a series of narrative missions, entering a specialised 'Art of Battle' mode when you encounter particularly difficult foes. Joining the battleįor Honor includes both single-player and multiplayer modes. Players pick one of three factions and then choose a class within that faction, each class has its own set of weapons and combat skills.
