Chivalry 2 - Reclamation Update Trailer
Chivalry 2, of course, is a “class-based” game in terms of more than just character loadout. The Reclamation update also introduces Last Peasant Standing, in which you get to play a fragile muck-raker scrambling to gather weapons from the map itself and murder other peasants on behalf of either the Agathians or the Tenosians. It’s divided into rounds - win five and you win the match. There doesn’t appear to be a victory option dedicated to shaking hands and rising in revolt against the silly bluebloods, but perhaps that’s something you can bring about in-game.

Last and least, the update re-introduces the Desert map as a Free-For-All map, and implements a host of smaller fixes, of which you may read more on theSteam page. There’s also a new campaign pass with which to unlock fancy armor, heraldry and… Warhammer skins? They buried the lede there.
Anyway, all of this is an overdue reminder for me personally that Chivalry 2 is on Game Pass and that I owe it some attention, as a man who often bangs frying pans together while closing his eyes and losing himself in visions of the Battle of Grunwald. In ourChivalry 2 review, Brendan “Knight of Flowers” Caldwell described it as “a gore-soaked multiplayer battler with tons of humour”, the key joke presumably being that it’s called “Chivalry”. Rick “Pendragon” Lane wrote aMaking Oflast year in which the developers, Torn Banner, revealed that Monty Python is a big influence.
