New Playable Heroes
This update introduces four new playable heroes:
Tonday the Elementalist uses fire, earth, water and air to break through the enemy's defenses and score goals.
Guthorn the Dragoon and their wyvern companion Ficos specializes in defense with abilities that include creating a wall of fire between the enemy striker and the goal.
Ulric the Centorc charges across the field, pummeling everything in their path and even summoning falling logs to incap the enemy and dominate the field.
Grace the Beastmaster uses their jackrabbit and corgi minions to buff their teammates and prevent the enemy from crossing into their home territory.
New Fields and Metagames
Cutthroat Colosseum was constructed by orcs after the great war to engage and enjoy various sporting events. In this field, players collect coins as they play. Each time a team collects ten coins, a band of mercenaries will pour onto the field and attack the opposing team!
The Dungeon was used during the Great War to imprison enemy orcs. Now their skeletal remains rise up to avenge themselves against anyone who dares enter the field. Brave heroes who can conquer them are rewarded with a special bone gate that stops any goal from being made on their side for a limited time!
The Elder Forest is a mysterious, magical place that was conquered by orcs long ago. The forest golem tribes didn't get the message apparently, and they continue their own wars right on the field. Seeking every advantage, the golems ally with the heroes to further their cause. Don't let your team's golem get incap, or else the other golem will go after your teammates!
The Slog Bog is every orc's favorite vacation getaway place! Formerly an empty swamp, it is now one of the very few fields where the audience can engage with heroes through world-famous log rides!
Player-Created Fields
Why just play the built-in fields when you can make your own, too? Using the free Field of Heroes Editor DLC, you will be able to build your own fields using the Unreal Engine with easy-to-use templated fields and tutorials.
