Summary

FOR HONOR has a TrueGG Rating of 57.1%: the positive share among 3,921 reviews written in the last 180 days by players with 20+ hours. That is 11.6 points below Steam's overall 68.7%, so players who really play the current version are harsher than the headline number suggests (all time: 69.2%).

Reviews written under 2 hours make up 7% of the total, and only 44% of them are positive. Some players bounce off early, but those who get past the opening rate it higher. Steam accepts refund requests within 2 hours of play and 14 days of purchase.

In the last 180 days, approval peaks at 65% around 10–20h and falls to 54% at 200h+: in the current version, long-time players are harsher.

Negative reviews most often mention player base and matchmaking (less than at launch), バランス, and servers (less than at launch). Positive reviews praise how fun it feels.

Re-weighting reviews by trust signals (playtime, length, how the game was obtained) barely changes the rating (67.3% adjusted), so Steam's number is not noticeably distorted by key giveaways or throwaway reviews.

All figures come from Steam's public review counts, and topics are counted with our published dictionary (no AI). Data as of 2026-10-19.

Why it is rated this way

What drives the rating

Complaints center on live operations and online play (Player base & matchmaking, Balance, Servers & connection). These shift over time, so weigh recent reviews more than the all-time figure.
