Mordhau Update 27 Patch Notes – March 28, 2023

The new game mode will be added to the Brawl playlist; the Sword Game. A free-for-all where everyone starts the match with the same weapon. With each kill the player receives the next weapon that is set in the weapons list for the mode, and has to use it to score the next kill, after which the process repeats. The first player to reach a predetermined kill score with the weapons from the list wins the match.

We wanted the Crude armor set to be the embodiment of usability, durability and to represent an armor that has seen its fair share of battles, so we had a total rework of it with improved texture quality and the additions of two helmet and two shoulder variations to represent our vision.

New skins for the RoyalGuard halberd and the Crude bill with a more refined and royal look to them.

Two new female voice sets are being added to the core game; Female French & Female German.

For those of you that want to scream and shout at your opponents with additional pugnacity and contentiousness, we have prepared the perfect combo! The new Continental Voice Pack 2 DLC, which includes:
