For Honor Announces New Viking Hero And Map

We often hear about the crazy success of Ubisoft’s Rainbow Six Siege as an example of how well the company has utilized the GaaS (Games as a System) philosophy perhaps better than anyone else. Another example that maybe gets a little less mention than it should is the brawler historical mishmash of For Honor. The game continues to go strong and today we got a look at the newest hero that’s coming at the beginning of next month.

The Jormungandr are fierce Viking warriors that worship the giant serpent of Norse lore. They will come in both female and male variations (the trailer highlights the female version) and have scarred bodies to prove their toughness to opponets. Along with them will come the new map of Storr Stronghold, which will enter the Breach map rotation.

For Honor is available now for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC. The Jormungandr will be available as part of Year 3 Season 3 and will release August 1st for Season Pass owners and be available to purchase later for others.
