Toronto developer Torn Banner Studios announced today that their middle-ages multiplayer action game Chivalry: Medieval Warefare will be making its way to the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
This updated version of Chivalry, published by Activision with development by Hardsuit Labs, has support for up to 24 players online, and multiplayer gameplay is supported by dedicated servers – just like the Steam version of Chivalry. The Xbox One and PlayStation 4 version of Chivalry: Medieval Warfare also includes Horde Mode, which was previously unavailable on Xbox 360 and PS3. Battle monsters and survive waves of new enemies in this fantasy co-op showdown.
Besiege castles and raid villages in this 24 player online experience. Trade in your guns and grenades to test your mettle against cold hard steel on the medieval battlefield. Now coming to Xbox One and PlayStation 4™ System with over 25 battlefields, up to 24 player online multiplayer, and an all new Horde Mode.
You'll be able to pre-order the game on Xbox One on November 24th. PlayStaiton 4 users can get the game on release, which is December 1st. The game will cost $19.99, but there is a $29.99 Gold Edition which comes with cosmetic weapon, armor and character skins. Make sure to follow the studio on Twitter.
With the big steam summer sale well under way, Bret Measor suggested I do a News post about the games on sale that were developed in our area. I thought "what a great idea!"
Except Torn Banner Studios beat me to it. So make sure to check out their awesome blog post (and check out Chivalry: Medieval Warfare which is on sale by 80%). Lots of great Toronto developed games are on sale this week.
Similar to what I did with Bit Bazaar, I'll be doing a Countdown to next weeks Stage Select Gaming Expo. We'll start with the developers behind the Chivalry franchise. Most recently Chivalry was updated with a Shark pack (you read that right).

"Torn Banner Studios is an exciting independent video game company located in Toronto, Canada. Passion and innovation are the core elements of everything that we do. We are people that truly love games and are lucky enough to be following our dreams, thanks to the incredible support from our community. We want to go places other companies are afraid to go, because we believe great games begin with the passion of a small group of diehard fans. Those fans have the deepest understanding and appreciation for the subject they love and a vision for how it should be presented in a game. We want to breathe life into that vision and allow more people to appreciate it. We want to take on the challenging ideas that when done well create truly powerful and unique games that are remembered. You say it can’t be done? We say bring it on."
According to their site, Torn Banner Studios has a Unannounced Unreal Engine 4 Game in development as well, so who knows what we'll see at Stage Select.
