But those who are looking for Lego games should also take a look these days.

Chivalry 2 – We haven’t played such epic medieval battles in ages
Developer Torn Banner Studios took a really long time to develop the successor to Chivalry: Medieval Warfare. It took nine years for the second part of the medieval multiplayer game, which focuses primarily on knightly combat. Because it has its strengths Chivalry 2 at a short distance from the enemy, where the tactical combat system, which is quite tricky to master, reveals its numerous possibilities.
Admittedly, some fights can be won with blunt sword or ax blows. However, those who land precise blows, counter enemy attacks and dodge one or the other arrow have a higher chance of winning a duel. You should keep in mind that Chivalry 2 is not a simulation of medieval battles, but is primarily focused on entertaining fun, in which you can even throw chickens at your opponent’s head.
In the GameStar test, Chivalry 2 proved itself to be an entertaining multiplayer game in which both beginners and Chivalry veterans can enjoy themselves. So far, however, the second part has only been available in the Epic Games Store. In the meantime, however, this exclusivity is over, which is why you can now get Chivalry 2 on Steam – currently significantly cheaper and recently even with the possibility of a mounted fight.

Medieval battles have never been more intense
