A brand new For Honor update will be deployed later today, marking the second major patch for Y5S4 with a brand new Pirate Hero.

Plenty of For Honor fans were disappointed when Y5S4 first launched at the beginning of December as they found a lack of content included in the update. However, Ubisoft did release an official roadmap listing plenty of content arriving in the coming weeks.

We've now reached the final part of the roadmap and fans can expect a new seasonal event, new hero, and more to arrive in the Y5S4 Title Update 2. Here's everything you need to know, including the release date and time.

The official description of the new Pirate Hero can be found below:

"The Pirates are sea captains coming from Archipelago far from the land of Heathmoor. Each of them is a captain of their own ship, with hundreds of people relying on them for their survival. Bold, bossy and passionate, but neither good nor bad, The Pirates are coming this year in Heathmoor seeking lost treasures and relics.

Fiercely loyal to one another, they ally themselves with anyone who can help them -- and they fight anyone who stands between them and their spoils with their cutlass and pistol".
