Do you loveBattlefield?
Are you a fan of medieval combat?
Does kicking a guy off his high horse (literally) sound enticing to you?
If it does, you better sit back and relax because weve got something special lined up for you.
TheMordhaufanbase is so overwhelmingly cool its clear how much they want the game to succeed.
So, weve compiled the answers you need in ourMordhau: Everything We Know article.
What is Mordhau?
Mordhauis a multiplayer medieval melee action game that plays in both first and third-person perspectives.
The game places a strong emphasis on skill-based combat.
Specifically, a battle royale mode that can host up to 64 players at a time.
Story
Mordhaus premise is simple.
Join a battlefield of up to 64 players set within the medieval period.
The battles promise a conniving level of intensity.
Yet, amid the brutality lies a beautiful sense of satisfying and fantastic combat.
Picture the huge variety of weapons at your disposal and their consequent strengths and weaknesses.
Youll have to choose your weapon wisely, carefully studying when and where to unleash them.
You may mount a horse and attack opponents Vikings-style.
Yet, riding on horseback opens you up to incomparable vulnerability.
Siege weapons, on the other hand, are perfect for crowd control or literal assaults on castles.
However, theyre often bulky and can easily put a target on your back.
Swords cut through flesh easy peasy.
Enemies wearing heavy armor, though, may need something a little heavier.
A hammer or club, perhaps.
Its interesting to see how much depth controllers can add toMordhau.
They can also choose from a Viking, a crusader, or a sharpshooting archer.
Then theres teamwork, a very important part of Mordhaus gameplay.
On your own, you may kill a bunch of enemies.
However, to survive through to the end, youll need to work together.
Because ultimately,Mordhauis far much more than simply killing a few enemies.
Rather, claiming new territories and relying on your teammates to buy you precious time to heal.
Unfortunately,Mordhauonly launched on PC platforms via Steam.
For a while, Mordhau has been in development for consoles.
One can only hope that the final game delivers, too.
Now, console owners can breathe a sigh of relief forMordhaufinally coming through with console versions.
