Today Torn Banner Sudios announced that they are teaming up with 345 Games to bring Spike TV’s Deadliest Warrior to Chivalry: Medieval Warfare in the form of a new expansion. Fans will get their first glimpse of Chivalry: Deadliest Warrior at PAX Prime, which runs August 30 –September 2, via an extensive demo featuring the Spartan and Samurai warriors. Steam gamers can join the beta and experience all five new warriors and a variety of new modes and environments.
“We are very excited to expand upon the foundation of Chivalry and bring dynamic melee combat to all new eras. For us it is an opportunity to explore completely new warrior types, environments and weapons and add them to the already expansive Chivalry content while still supporting the base game,” says Steve Piggott, president of Torn Banner Studios. “The Deadliest Warrior show asks one core question – if the greatest warriors from throughout history fought it out, who would win? Now we are bringing that decision to gamers as they get to vote for their faction with the swing of their sword, determining once and for all who is deadliest!”
Dan Yang, General Manager of 345 Games adds: “We’re excited about pairing the unique concept of Deadliest Warrior with a game that offers such a rich combat experience. Our console games have provided fans of Deadliest Warrior with hugely entertaining single-player action in arena-based battles. This expansion pack allows us to inject the Deadliest Warrior conflict into an entirely new multi-player, multi-era world to create the only first-person slasher of its kind. We’re certain the resulting combat will be as intense as the warriors themselves.”
The complete expansion pack will be unleashed this Fall for $14.99 on Steam. The base Chivalry game is available now for $24.99. For more information head over to Torn Banner’s website here
