It's been a fittingly gargantuan day on the For Honor news front. First there was the announcement that Ubi's murdery brawler is getting a closed beta from September 15-18, and now we know the line-up of its roster. Only two members of which share names with early-'90s WWF wrestlers.

In addition to being separated by class, each fighter has one of four skillsets. Vanguards are well-balanced all-rounders; assassins swift and lethal; heavies slow but powerful; and hybrids "advanced characters fostering uncommon tactics", apparently. 

For Honor is released for PS4, Xbox One and PC on February 14, 2017.
