Originally believed to be part of the Viking faction, many players saw that the Highlander Class is tagged as a Gaelic warrior. Furthermore, the Highlander's weapon is not shown in the character selection, but it is rumored to have a two-handed sword, PVPLine reported.
Ubisoft has yet to comment on any of the possible new DLC classes and have shrugged off any comments about the leaks during their weekly "For Honor" livestream. Although, Ubisoft stated before that they will launch six heroes in "For Honor" as part of their post-launch plans, and they will be included in pairs.
Meanwhile, Ubisoft launched the new patch 1.04 update in "For Honor" for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC, as the new patch will fix the various bug fixes in the game and improves the performance and match stability.
The patch 1.04 also addresses the Conqueror graphical glitch in "For Honor," which was first introduced in the last Live Update as part of Ubisoft's ongoing session stability fixes.
Patch 1.04 will have 154MB download on the consoles and PC platform. Xbox users will also be receiving a new update in "For Honor" next week, which adds functionality to enable/disable invites.
Lastly, gaming fans are starting to protest regarding the microtransactions in "For Honor" DLC.
Gamers are outraged at the fact that it cost over $700 just to unlock every content within "For Honor" and players are urging each other not to spend money on the in-game payments in order to send a message to Ubisoft.
One frustrated gamer rant about the transaction on "For Honor's" Reddit page and accused Ubisoft of "over charge" for players buying its microtransaction. Gamers believed that issue should be fought over and must have “collective might” that the entire gaming community can muster as full-price triple A games should not incorporate this low-effort high-price system of development.
Although Ubisoft is aware of the protest, they cannot just change the prices instantly, and gamers offered a solution which just hand over refunds or lower its prices in "For Honor's" DLC, Gamerant reported.
"For Honor" is currently available on the PS4, Xbox One and PC platforms.
