Chivalry 2
If you have ever wanted to be part of a medieval battle and live to tell about it, now is your chance! Just watch out for the guy behind you, he wants to chop your head off.
God is a Geek: 8.5 / 10 by Mick Fraser
Chivalry 2 is an excellent large-scale multiplayer game with enough humour, mission types and classes to appeal to any fan of medieval warfare.
Windows Central: 4.5 / 5 by Brendan Lowry
Chivalry 2 is perfect for folks who want to have a chaotic good time and enjoy the fantasy of fighting in romanticized medieval battlefields. There are a couple of downsides, but it's still an amazing game that we can't recommend enough.
PlayStation LifeStyle: 7 / 10 by Alanna Lataillade
The sequel to the classic is indeed worthy in most ways, and Chivalry II is a much needed upgrade to the original game. Combat has a lot going on, and while many players will behave as non-chivalrous bastards, there is a good amount of fun to be found on the medieval battlefields of Chivalry II.
The main pros of the game
- Engaging Combat System: Players appreciate the well-designed combat mechanics that require precise timing and strategy, allowing for various playstyles depending on weapon choice.
- Epic Medieval Battles: The game captures the essence of medieval warfare with large-scale battles, realistic graphics, and immersive environments.
- Variety of Classes and Weapons: Users enjoy the diverse classes (e.g., knights, archers) and a wide array of weapons, which promote tactical team play and different gameplay experiences.
- Fun and Humorous Moments: Despite the brutal action, many players find humor in the gameplay, contributing to an overall enjoyable experience.
- Good Graphics: The visuals of the game, including detailed maps and realistic weaponry, are frequently praised.
The main cons of the game
- Toxic Community: Several reviews highlight issues with the game's community, mentioning toxic behavior and a lack of moderation.
- Cheating and Lag: Players express frustration over the presence of cheaters and significant lag, which detracts from the gameplay experience.
- Balancing Issues: Many users report problems with match balancing, where one team often dominates, leading to unbalanced and frustrating matches.
- Steep Learning Curve for New Players: Beginners may find the game challenging due to the high skill level of many players, which can lead to frustration.
The features or elements that are missing from the game according to users
- Better Anti-Cheat Measures: Users have called for improved anti-cheat systems to address the prevalence of cheating in online matches.
- Improved Server Performance: Many reviews mention lag and server issues that need resolution to enhance the overall experience.
- More Effective Matchmaking: Players desire better matchmaking to ensure fairer and more balanced games.
- More Tactical Options: Some users feel that the gameplay could benefit from additional tactical elements or features to enhance strategy.
Summary
- Overall, while Chivalry 2 is celebrated for its combat and medieval battle experience, it faces criticism regarding community behavior, technical issues, and balance in gameplay.

Chivalry 2 Description
Chivalry II is a network action game that allows players to take part in medieval battles. This is a continuation of the popular 2012's Chivalry: Medieval Warfare. Both productions were developed by Torn Banner studio.
Mechanics
In Chivalry II players observe the action from the first-person perspective. The game focuses on battles with other players using various melee weapons, as well as bows and crossbows. One of the novelties in comparison to its predecessor is the possibility of ride horses. The production is set in a fictional universe inspired by Hollywood films and the authors focus mainly on the spectacularity of the battles, not their realism.
The game offers an extensive combat system that allows players to control every movement with the mouse. Compared to its predecessor, it has been greatly improved, making it more manoeuvrable and easier to learn.
The game delivers a much larger scale of battles. Chivalry allows 64 players to play at the same time. The game is a team game. The participants are divided into two factions and each side is given specific tasks to perform, the fulfilment of which requires good cooperation. During the game, players take part in the sieges of fortresses, plundering of villages, and fighting on the fields and in the forests.
Maps are filled with interactive objects, and the gameplay is governed by a powerful physical engine. This provides a lot of freedom of action. One can, for example, set a chicken on fire and throw it at an enemy, or use the body of a killed enemy as a projective for a catapult.
Game modes
Chivalry II offers the multiplayer mode only.
Technical aspects
The production has attractive three-dimensional visuals based on Unreal Engine 4. Compared to the first part, the scale of battles and the level of detail have been increased and the whole animation system has been thoroughly redesigned.
