Ahead of "For Honor" Faction War season 2, all of the emotes and executions for the Centurion and Shinobi have been revealed.

 According to reports, developers of the slash fighting game have recently shown the Season Pass outfits and movesets for the Centurion and Shinobi factions. From the looks of it, the Centurion puts more focus on attacks that are hard to counter, while the Shinobi offers more mix-ups and chains.

Centurion

In the gameplay trailer from Ubisoft, the Roman soldier shows off his brute strength as he beats down his enemy. The character uses his Gladius as an "extension of his arm" to easily kill opponents charging at him. The Centurion's costume is inspired by a Roman Legionnaire, and most of the character's attacks are unblockable. Players can activate the jumping Eagle's Fury attack once the opponent becomes unsteady and is about to fall.

Shinobi

The second trailer features the Shinobi as a fast-moving fighter. He wields his Kusarigama like a Scorpion's spear that can pull an opponent for close-range battle. He also has the power to teleport. As for the character's appearance, the Shinobi sports a much simpler armor that is predominantly blue in color. Although he has a hook for close-range fights, he can throw the Kusarigama to attack enemies from a distance. This attack leads to plenty of moveset options including kick, grab, or Sickle Rain combo.

Both fighters will head into battle for Season Pass holders when the game's season 2 officially begins on May 16. Everyone else can access the fighters by purchasing them with in-game currency starting May 23. It is also confirmed that all players will get new items once the season opens. In addition to the second round of the Faction War, two new maps, gameplay updates, and more customization options will be released for all players.

Developed and published by Ubisoft, "For Honor" is exclusively available for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC.
