Ubisoft has recently announced their newest hero for their ongoing combat game For Honor. Set to release this week, the new hero named Afeera is armed with a mace and shield with a fighting style that brings precise and elegant combat to the game’s roster from the kingdom of Arabia.
Starting February 2nd, players will be able to purchase the new Afeera Hero from first-party stores for $7.99 USD as part of a package that includes the new Hero, one Exclusive Ornament, one Elite Outfit, seven days of Champion Status, and three scavenger crates. Players can also unlock the Hero on February 16th for 15,000 Steel in-game. In addition, a free Event Pass with a Battle Outfit, an Effect, and an Ornament will be available at the launch of the Hero.
As the team looks forward to the start of For Honor’s Year 7, they are celebrating their 6th anniversary with a free week for new players. The free week will take place on PlayStation, Xbox, and Ubisoft Connect from February 2nd-9th. Free Week players will have full access to the Standard Edition of the game, and those who want to keep battling after the free period will be able to carry on their progression and heroes to the full game once purchased.
