A new Chivalry 2 update is live on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series S, and Xbox Series X alongside official patch notes that reveal and detail everything Torn Banner Studios has done to the game. With Patch 2.1.2, the developer hasn’t done a ton to the game, which is why it’s billed as a minor patch. That said, while there’s not much of note, there is the addition of a 1v1 Arena Mode, which will only be available until September 13.
At the moment of publishing, it’s unclear whether or not the update requires a download. If it does, it’s safe to assume the download size is minor, because, as noted, the patch is literally referred to as a “minor patch.”
