For Honor is charging ever closer, and it's bringing a whole new approach to combat – dubbed the Art of Battle – that's rife with tricks and advanced techniques to give skilled players an edge. You're probably eager to learn how to survive on For Honor's merciless battlefields, so three YouTube Generals – Moo Snuckel, CaRtOoNz, and That One Video Gamer – have created videos to teach you the essential skills you'll need to rise to supremacy as a Knight, Viking, or Samurai.
With For Honor Battle Tips, each General will show you how to make the most of their chosen faction's Heroes, beginning with a rundown of the basics – from effective attacking and blocking to executions and emotes – and continuing with advanced tips and playthroughs of faction-appropriate story missions. Moo Snuckel demonstrates the finer points of fighting as the Samurai, while CaRtOoNz shows how to achieve armored dominance with the Knights. For those who prefer fur and flashing axes, That One Video Gamer rounds out the trio with the Vikings.
For Honor Battle Tips will start to roll out in January, and will be updated periodically with new pointers before and after launch, giving you a regularly updated resource with which to sharpen your skills as you dive sword-first into the Closed Beta and the full game. For Honor will be available February 14 on Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC; in the meantime, be sure to check back with For Honor Battle Tips frequently for more survival strategies.
