Disgusted by this, The Warden finally, and angrily abandons the Blackstone Legion. She explains their intention to decimate the Viking's supply of food to force them into fighting each other. It was only after they proceeded to burn down the Viking's primary grain storehouse that The Warden pulls Mercy aside and demands to know why they are there. After winning the trial, The Warden was knighted by Cross and inducted into the Blackstone Legion.Īfter partaking in several missions with them, The Warden began to question the Legion's motivations as they witnessed Apollyon's ruthless nature. When Daubeny ordered The Warden to partake in the Trial by Combat they agreed only because they knew everyone would be slaughtered should they refuse. When Holden Cross and the Blackstone Legion came for Daubeny, The Warden took up arms to fight not for Daubeny but for their fellow Knights. However, they had sworn an oath and had no intention to break it no matter how much they disliked the warlord. Originally a warden in service of Hervis Daubeny, The Warden was displeased with their position and their master. That search comes to end in Ashfeld, among the warriors of the Blackstone Legion. But after years of fighting endless battles for no worthy cause, The Warden has begun wandering, seeking a purpose that is equal to their talent and genuinely worth fighting for. Wardens are expected to be noble and brave – living embodiments of virtue – and this one has the potential to be that and more. With a launch just a day away, we’ll be looking forward to bringing brutal chivalry down upon foes with For Honor’s Warden shortly.The Warden is a courageous and talented young knight from the lands of the Iron Legion. That said, Warden is the first arrival of a guest character back in Samurai Shodown 2019 and it’s a notable one to say the least, having come from what wouldn’t be considered a traditional fighting game. Geese Howard has been a prominent addition in Tekken and even Haohmaru made his way over to Soul Calibur 6. Even so, SNK has shown itself more than willing to lend its characters elsewhere. The last character for SamSho 2019’s Season 2 had been veiled in mystery after all. Ubisoft’s For Honor has been interesting to say the least as one of the few mainstream melee team fighters (and a good one if our Shacknews review has anything to say about it), but coming over to SNK to lend one of its very first characters to Samurai Shodown is a shocker. The Warden as the final character of the Season 2 DLC for Samurai Shodown is a pretty interesting surprise that few people probably saw coming. You can see the Warden in action in the trailer below. The Warden weighs chivalry against bushido with his knightly stature and massive longsword and looks like he has some charge attacks, sword combos, and even a catapult to throw death down upon his foes. Set for release on June 24, 2020, the Warden is closing out the second season of DLC which included the archer Mina, the water ninja Sogetsu, and the horny-on-main crane maid Iroha. SNK revealed the surprise crossover with Ubisoft and For Honor via a trailer launched on the SNK WORLD YouTube Channel on June 23, 2020. Coming over from Ubisoft’s brutal team melee For Honor, the Warden will be Samurai Shodown’s next DLC character. It’s well into its second season of DLC characters and the upcoming one is a doozy. Samurai, ninja, knights, and other weapon-wielding warriors from altogether are clashing blades in classic style and revitalized visuals in the new game, but Samurai Shodown still has more to give. The return of Samurai Shodown into the fighting game scene has been an incredible one since its arrival in 2019.
