Graphically the game is astounding, the various player models lumber around menacingly in their big suits of armor and the levels themselves are pleasingly designed with lots of period relevant medieval architecture. There is a load of diversity in the classes and loadouts you can equip especially once you start unlocking the various subclasses in the game, and through experimentation you will definitely find a class that caters to your play style. The melee classes are composed of the knight who has the choice of wielding a 2 handed weapon or a 1 handed weapon and shield, the footman who can wield massive long-range polearms or can also choose a handed weapon sans shield and the vanguard who is a melee/ranged hybrid class equipped with both melee and throwing weapons. The other 3 classes in the game are all melee based, though they can also throw their weapons and various items strewn around, even decapitated heads and arms if that’s your thing! I think one of the funniest moments I have ever encountered in all my game playing years is when I sat back and watched one of my teammates beat an enemy to death with the arm, he just relieved him of via dismemberment. Archers have access to bows, crossbows and javelins amongst other weapons and are best used at distance from all the sword swinging chaos on the battlefield which will allow you to pick off opponents that are already engaged in melee combat, it is highly satisfying shooting an opponent through the back of the head before they even get a chance to see you but also highly frustrating when you are on the receiving end of the same treatment. Heading off the list and possibly the most annoying class to play against (but also one of the most fun to play as) in the game is the archer class. There are 4 main classes in Chivalry 2 each with three subclasses to unlock as you rack up kills and gather experience in the game. ![]() There is also a free for all mode where it is every man for himself, this mode in itself is worth the entry price due to the outright chaos and hilarity that it brings to the table. The main game mode in Chivalry 2 sees two teams (The Mason Order and The Agatha Knights) in a 32 vs 32 player battle across 8 maps, some matches being as simple as team death match whereas the larger maps will see you trying to accomplish various objectives across the landscape such as pushing siege towers across the battlefield or protecting all important trebuchets from your enemies’ attacks. The game is strictly an online game, save for the tutorial mode and a few modes where you can practice against bots, think of Call of Duty but remove the guns and replace them with massive swords, poleaxes, javelins, and executioner axes. Torn Banner Studios released the excellent and critically acclaimed Chivalry all the way back in 2012 and have spent the many years between then and now working on its successor the rather unimaginatively though rather aptly titled Chivalry 2, now you can quench your bloodthirst in even higher resolutions and in far greater detail.Ĭhivalry 2 is definitely not a game for children, with the number of beheadings, amputations and blood sprayed around the virtual battlefields in the game you would not be amiss thinking that this game was a surgery simulator in a hospital where the surgeons were very, very not good. Have you ever woken up one morning and decided you wanted to don a suit of plate armor and run out into the middle of a medieval battlefield and start wildly swinging a sword around in order to decapitate your rivals? Given the lack of sleep and nightmare infused fever dreams I have been having lately this is pretty much my first waking thought and thankfully Chivalry 2 from Torn Banner Studios has just arrived to help me be able to live out my dreams. ![]()
