Ubisoft has announced that For Honor Year 5 Season 4 Frozen Shores will be available on December 9.

In Frozen Shores, all factions are recovering from losses caused by the Tempest, "except for mysterious ships that have navigated the rising waters of Heathmoor and ended up at the docks." A new cinematic trailer also gives players a glimpse at what to expect when the new season launches.

From December 9 until December 30, For Honor will introduce a new, limited-time event named Frostwind Celebrations. During this event, players will be able to progress through a Free Event Pass and gain access to a collection of rewards including a Paired-Emote, a new Battle Outfit, an Effect, as well as an Ornament.

Players can also expect new weapons as loot and, for $10, players can purchase a Battle Pass with premium content including new Battle Outfits, Ornaments, Execution, Podium and Effects.

In addition to Year 5 Season 4, a later update in the form of Title Update 2 will also bring a new hero, along with other content and rewards, on January 27. The Covenant Games will also make a return on February 17, allowing play of the Carousel of Horkos game mode, with rewards including a Battle Outfit and an Ornament as well as an Effect, while a Throwback Event called the Black Prior’s Riposte will also bring back original rewards and weapons on March 3.

Testing Grounds will also feature new improvements to the Shinobi, which will be added to For Honor on the season launch date. For Honor will also have another phase of Testing Grounds from December 30 to January 6, focusing on the Dominion game mode and Conqueror. Changes for Dominion will include capture speed, renown, hard points, along with other UI improvements.
