Chivalry: Medieval Warfare Patch 43 - The Peasants' Revolt

On the third anniversary of Chivalry’s brutal reign, the peasants have had enough!

The war cry has been heard:

“Take up arms, fellow villagers! The Peasants’ Revolt begins!”

From Oct 15 to 31, BE THE PEASANT in a special limited time event:

  • Peasant model available to all players in Free-For-All game mode
  • Free peasants’ weapons and armor added temporarily:
    • Rusty Pitchfork, a replacement for the Fork (by Crush & Zombo Joe)
    • Block Knocker, a replacement for the Cudgel (by Oilystool)
    • Squire Trainer, a Man-at-Arms set that replaces the Broadsword (by Arsenal)
    • The Nose Picker, a replacement for the Double Axe

To participate and unlock the above, you must be a member of the Chivalry Steam Community. After October 31, the special peasants’ items and skin will be revoked.

The filthy peasants have even raided the Steam store, and have made Chivalry: Medieval Warfare available for FREE all weekend (Oct 15-18), for everyone! Get the game for 80% off until October 19.

The peasants of the Internet have organized something even more ambitious: a Grand Tournament to celebrate the Third Anniversary of Chivalry! Watch the Team Objective playoff tournament Oct 17-18:
