Games like Titanfall, Battlefront, and Rainbow Six Siege have marked a new trend in gaming and it has been very polarizing among gamers. Multiplayer only games have caused a commotion in the gaming world, especially Ubisoft who recently felt the heat from the gaming community when Rainbow Six Siege was released without a solo campaign despite its inclusion in previous entries. It appears that they have learned their lesson, because in Ubisoft’s most recent For Honor Producer Highlights video Producer Stephane Cardin made the announcement.
For Honor is Ubisoft’s brutal new four vs. four multiplayer game where players take control of one of three classes (knight, viking or samurai) and fight along side an AI controlled team to take control of strategic points.
Cardin made the announcement in response to a the fan question asked during the video.
One of big questions we received and feedback was about the solo campaign, we said that we will have a solo campaign, and I can promise you that we will have a solo campaign. It’s one of the key subjects we’re working on.
No other information was given about From Honor‘s solo campaign so it is still unclear if it will be a fully realized story mode or something similar to Titanfall with a campaign multiplayer option or Evolve where players are just dropped into special multiplayer matches with bots.

What do you think about this multiplayer only trend in games? Would you rather have a Dev team focus on making a great multiplayer experience that may alienate players that don’t enjoy them?
