Tripwire Presents and Torn Banner Studios Launch Free Fight Knight Update for PlayStation®4, PlayStation®5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC
Sydney, AU – Oct. 27, 2021 – Developer Torn Banner Studios, publisher Tripwire Presents, and global retail publishing partner Deep Silver have announced the launch of the free Chivalry 2: Fight Knight update for the award-winning multiplayer hit and 2021 nominee for the Golden Joysticks Best PC Game and Best Multiplayer Game of the Year.
Out now for PC (via Epic Games Store), the PlayStation®4 and PlayStation®5 computer entertainment systems, the Xbox One family of devices, and the Xbox Series X|S console systems, the Chivalry 2: Fight Knight update adds an all-new Brawl mode, Last Team Standing mode, and a new swashbuckling Rapier weapon.
In addition, combat becomes even more outrageous now that players with dismembered arms can use headbutts for one last chance at taking down rivals. All this and more comes wrapped in a seasonal Halloween event, filling the ultimate medieval battlefield with festive and spooky decorations.
“Chivalry 2 is going to live for a very long time,” said Torn Banner Studios CEO & Creative Director Steve Piggott. “We’ve already confirmed content planned for release all the way through the end of 2022 and remain committed to doubling the size and scope of Chivalry 2 as our team continues work on updates, like today’s Fight Knight release.”
Watch the newly released developer diary here:
Chivalry 2: Fight Knight update key features include:
Brawl Mode and Maps: Leave your weapons at the door for the all-new brawl mode designed to capture the rowdy and chaotic feel of a tavern brawl. Take a seat! Literally. And then smash someone’s face with it!
Two Brawl Maps: Up to 40 players can join the fray in The Great Hall and Rudhelm Feast.
Found Objects: Players can pick up and wield just about anything they can find across the map. Embrace the chaos and grab chairs, beer steins, rolling pins, sausages, and giant fish to beat down your rivals!
Last Team Standing Mode: Players looking for more realistic team battles can expect the return of top-requested mode from the original Chivalry: Medieval Warfare! Stakes are high, as these 40-player battles have no respawns. The last team/person standing is crowned as the winning team.
Headbutt Combat: It’s only a flesh wound! Chivalry 2’s limb loss combat system sees the most brutal and outrageous update yet. Now, when a player has lost both limbs in combat, they can execute an arm-less headbutt attack for a last chance at taking down an opponent before bleeding out.
Rapier Weapon: This new fencing weapon type also introduces a new swashbucklingcombat style with more focus on fast-movements and flourishes.
Halloween Event: Running from Oct. 26 through Nov. 7, players can look forward to Chivalry 2’s first-ever seasonal event with new cosmetics, like the pumpkinhelm, and Halloween themed decorations and interactive objects, like giant Jack O Lanterns that can be weaponised.
Rudhelm Siege, Dark Forest, Great Hall (Brawl mode), and Wardenglade (Free-for-All and Last Team Standing modes) will feature these limited-time Halloween decorations.
Arena Mode Improvements: New improvements to Arena include an offline practice mode for teams to hone their skills and teamwork as well as overall polish improvements, including a new winner’s podium cutscene.
Armory Updates: In addition to the new Rapier weapon, players can all look forward to a wide array of new cosmetics and skins to unlock, including armour sets, new female armour skins, new helmet skins, new weapon skins, and even a fancy moustache!
Chivalry 2 is a multiplayer first-person slasher inspired by epic medieval movie battles. Players are thrust into the action of every iconic moment of the era from clashing swords and storms of flaming arrows to sprawling castle sieges, and more. Dominate massive battlefields while catapults tear the earth apart as players lay siege to castles, set fire to villages, and slaughter filthy peasants in the return of Team Objective maps.
Improving on the original genre-defining Chivalry: Medieval Warfare in every way, Chivalry 2 invites players to master the blade with an all-new and improved combat system that combines real-time strikes and a free-flowing combo system to speed up the action and let players become a whirlwind of steel on the battlefield. Created with the ability to fight multiple foes in mind, Chivalry 2’s combat mixes the best of both FPS and fighting game genres for an unmatched melee experience.
Chivalry 2 has an RRP of AUD $59.95 for the Standard Edition or AUD $79.95 for the Special Edition, with a classification rating of R 18+(High impact violence, online interactivity and in-game purchases).

After last year’s popular pumpkin-smashing fiesta, players can once again obtain legendary items and other rewards by earning event points from now until Tuesday, 9 November 2021.

What’s more, Hunt: Showdown’s new DLC, Cold Blooded, is being added to the game today, including Legendary Hunter “The Reptilian”, a Legendary Bomb Lance “Tooth to Tail” and a Legendary Romero 77 Talon “Avarice”.
“We wanted to give players of the spookiest game around a chance to celebrate the spooky season again, so what better way than with a live event”, said Fatih Özbayram, Hunt: Showdown’s senior producer. “Last year’s Halloween event was so popular that we knew we had to do one again, so we’re looking forward to seeing you all in the Bayou for The Harvest.”

About Hunt: Showdown
Hunt: Showdown is a competitive first-person bounty hunting game that packs the thrill of survival games into a match-based format. Set in Louisiana in 1895, the game boasts a mixture of PvP and PvE elements that creates a uniquely tense experience. It’s not just the creatures who are a threat —it’s every Hunter on the map. In the classic game mode, a match of Hunt pits 12 players — playing solo or in teams of two or teams of three — against each other as they race to take out gruesome beasts for a bounty they must collect and get off the map, while Hunt’s quickplay mode offers a shorter match for solo players to scavenge for weapons as they compete for a diminishing pool of bounty. The higher the risk, the higher the reward–but a single mistake could cost everything. Hunt is available now on Steam. For more information, visit www.huntshowdown.com.

All Hallows’ Eve Brings a Tinge of Terror to the Wild West
Tricks, treats, and the Halloween Pass 2 arrive in Red Dead Online later this week — plus All Hallows’ Call to Arms
All Hallows’ Eve draws near and brings with it bleak tidings, and an eerie tinge to the atmosphere of the Wild West.
There are reports of new clashes at various settlements coming across the wire: telegrams read in hushed tones about confrontations with these strange and unsettling adversaries. Protecting the freeholds of Armadillo, Butcher Creek, Shady Belle, and Bolger Glade from attack in the seasonal All Hallows’ Call to Arms modes will earn you a pretty penny, namely 2X RDO$, Gold, and XP.
These macabre standoffs include alligators and cougars hungry for flesh, and a supernatural ghost train haunting the town of Armadillo. Players who hold out and survive to the tenth wave of any All Hallows’ Call to Arms mode will be rewarded with 2,000 Club XP to redeem on the Halloween Pass 2 (more on that below).
The same 2X Gold, RDO$, and XP bonus also applies to this week’s featured series, the seasonally appropriate Dead of Night — where four teams must compete for kills in a fight against the never-ending tide of The Dead. Completing any Dead of Night mode and emerging from the bloodbath this week will land you a Reward for a free Ability Card of your choosing.
Both these seasonal modes feature a Night Stalker Mask that allows you to access supernatural powers and strengths beyond the limits of mere humanity. Use it wisely — if you dare.
Tricks and Treats
Get into the spirit of things this Halloween by visiting Madam Nazar’s roving storefront and shopping for a mask that suits you best. The Slaughter Mask, Creature Mask, Horror Mask, Swing Mask, Freak Mask, and Masquerade Mask are all available for a limited time. And check your Inventory for a sweet little treat of 10 Snowberger Candies and 5 Chocolate Bars. Don’t eat them all in one go — savor them between fights or when the road is long.
The Halloween Pass 2 Brings All Sorts of Grim and Ghoulish Gifts
On October 28, pick up The Halloween Pass 2 — a purchasable, limited-time upgrade packed with grim and gruesome rewards spread across 15 ranks, running through November 22. The Halloween Pass 2 includes ever more masks to help conceal your identity, new clothing items stained with the blood of past crimes, and accessories sure to inspire terror in your victims.
Players who purchased all four installments of The Quick Draw Club will receive a Reward to get the Halloween Pass 2 for free. This week, all players who own the Halloween Pass 2 will be rewarded with a free Stable Slot and a select Shirt (up to Rank 15).

Nintendo Switch™ owners can pledge allegiance to the band now that the Bard has taken the stage
Hamburg, October 26th, 2021 – gamigo is pleased to announce the Bard is now available for the Nintendo Switch version of its popular Voxel MMO, Trove. Starting today, players can rock out as the game’s latest class to offer both support and healing to their party.
The Bard class can now weave stylish moves and dazzling songs into numerous powerful abilities on the Nintendo Switch to buff and aid their fellow adventurers in combat – either comfortably at home or on the go. They’re doing all that while dishing out magic damage when facing off against dangers across multiple procedurally generated worlds. Players looking to be one with the rock gods can obtain the Bard exclusively through crafting on the Chaos Crafter or via one of the new Bard Packs.
Today’s update also introduces a new crafting tier to Crystallogy, called the Bardmancologist. This section makes it possible to craft allies, mounts, wings, and dazzling costumes for the Bard class. Unfortunately, groupies didn’t make the cut since real rockers don’t craft them. Groupies are earned.
With the Nintendo Switch version of Trove, players can enjoy their favorite game anywhere, anytime and have fun at home or on the go with its seamless blend of adventure, world-building and combat. This version is the ideal platform to get creative and to realize your own creations in the game. That’s worth a killer guitar solo from the Bard!
With the Bard’s release on Nintendo Switch, players can now choose from 17 individual classes, including the heroic Vanguardian, the magical Chloromancer and many more. Trove’s growing range of classes can accommodate even the most diverse playstyles and the ability to… switch between them on the fly allows players to take the fight at a distance they’re comfortable with. If worse comes to worst, they can always jump on a flamethrower-equipped dragon to show enemies they mean business.
