Chivalry 2

In the game, players are equipped with various medieval melee weapons such as sledgehammers, long swords and battle axes, though they can also use bows and arrows. Players also need to block hostile attacks, and with the right timing, they can stagger their opponents and parry their attacks. Players can also pick up the dismembered limbs of their opponents and use them as weapons. They can also throw their melee weapons at their enemies, though this may leave the player defenceless. All team-based modes pit the Agatha Knights, who wear blue and white, and the Mason Order, who wear red and black, against each other. The game includes team deathmatch and a team objective mode, which supports a maximum of 64 players, as well as a free-for-all deathmatch mode. On certain maps, once attacking players successfully storm the castle, the top players in either the attacking or defending team can become the "hero" and gain various gameplay perks. Each phase of the battle is timed, and if the invaders fail to complete the objectives within the time period, the defenders win the match. A "brawl mode" was introduced on October 26, 2021 that is essentially a free-for-all mode of up to 40 players allowing strictly the use of unconventional weapons such as a fish, chair, bottles, a rolling pin, bread and a turkey leg. Torn Banner Studios started developing the game in 2017. According to Torn Banner, the game was not designed to be a sword fighting simulation game, and that combat would be similar to a "bar fight more than a fencing match", as players can use whatever they find in the battlefield as their weapons.Monty Python was often cited as the inspiration for this feature. The gameplay and the structure of the team objective mode, which features these large-scale battles, was inspired by Game of Thrones and The Lord of the Rings, as the team described it as a "fluid, cinematic experience." Chivalry 2 was announced at E3 2019 by publisher Tripwire Interactive during the PC Gaming Show.
