The next major update of Mordhau is finally here and it brings a good amount of new content. Users who like playing female characters will be glad to know that two new female voice sets have been introduced, one for French and one for German. New weapon skins for RoyalGuard halberd and the Crude bill are introduced as well.

The patch also adds Sword Game — a brand-new game mode for the Brawl playlist. The new mode is exactly the same as the Gun Game mode from Call of Duty, meaning after every successful kill, the player will receive the next weapon in the prearranged list for the game mode. The player must use each weapon to score a kill, and the cycle continues until the final kill score is reached. The first player to get the kill from the last weapon wins the match.
