Chivalry 2 Update Adds New Mode for Limited Time

By Tyler Fischer

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."

Below, you can check out the update's official and complete patch notes, courtesy of the game's official website:

Combat

  • Adjusted the combo "delay" animation after being blocked to now properly show the delay from the blocking player's perspective

Matchmaking

  • Fixed an issue where players can queue for a game before all region pings have been retrieved, causing the player to be put into a high ping server
  • Fixed an issue where players were unable to queue again after canceling the initial queue

Gamemodes

  • Arena - Fixed backfill issue with arena mode by allowing them to backfill more quickly
  • Playlist - Removed "New Maps" Playlist and 40p Mixed Modes

Controller

  • Fixed an issue players could purchase customization items from outside of the Customizations menu
