A overview of the new Egyptian Hero in For Honor, the Medjay. Medjay has great fashion and fights with a double sided fan axe that can be detached from one staff to two axes. In this video we take a look at Medjay's executions, emotes, and customization including a Moon Knight cosplay.
music in order of appearance:
Warriors of the Sand by Miniotto

Edit: Medjay will be launching with two SETS, I unfortunately screwed up sets and variations! Sorry for the confusion. Had to reupload after KZbin took 30 mins to check my video and tell me my original intro got copyright claimed. What do you think of the Medjay? Who is next?

[@suly.s8029]

He looks awesome. 100% buying him. Haven’t been this sold on a Hero since Kyoshin.

[@SpaceAnomaly09]

Incredibly excited for him, been wanting a Egyptian hero since the Wu-Lin. Next I’m hoping for an Arabian or an Aztec.

[@infernalelysium7676]

Khopesh hero

[@thecyanpanda241]

I've been saving steel since I heard about him, I'm at about 19k so hopefully I can get some cool stuff with him

[@suns8077]

It would be cool If the next hero Was a indian warrior they have the most unique weapons like katars , urumi (its a bladed whip) ,dandpatta , Chakram and a bagh nakha that is like what warmonger uses in her bash

[@Foxster_13]

Since they added the Medjay, I'm surprised that Ubisoft didn't add a Bayek inspired outfit from AC Origins, since he is or was a Medjay obviously Bayek wasn't as muscular as the Medjay in For Honour but could have been cool to see an outfit inspired by him.

[@masonthewalker]

To be fair, the default outfit is very similar to Bayek’s default attire.

[@timothytim171]

They could also add it as content later on

[@Foxster_13]

@@masonthewalker A little, but still could have been cool.

[@lennyfais5040]

Magistrate is definitely Ammit, as she presided over the judgement of souls. If their soul did not weigh up, Ammit would devour their soul, condemning them to oblivion.

[@MarcoYolo]

Ahh interesting! Thanks for the insight!!

[@lennyfais5040]

[@FlyingNova223]

Wasn’t it Sobek who devoured the heart of the unjust?

[@FlyingNova223]

No I got it wrong, there is a difference: Ammit is the devourer of the unjust souls Sobek is a god of fertility of the land and the Nile river (the lord of crocodiles)

[@FossorialFungus]

For that Aztec introduction idea, I feel like both lawbringer and conqueror would work, especially since Conqueror is in the name

[@VeotheVillain]

Next outlander should be an Aztec Warrior with a Macuahuitl

[@pandito46]

Yes with the name, however, the polearm/halberd was more of a common sight with conquistadors than a flail, so the lawbringer would probably work slightly better

[@jacktheripper5112]

i don't thinks o, most likely it will be a wu lin getting the elite outfit , since that's how they're gonna tie it to the story , but we'll see , we still have like 8 months to go , jesus that's such a long time for a new hero

[@VerdantAssassin]

Gotta love how Conqueror in the Spanish version of the game is literally named Conquistador.

[@FossorialFungus]

@@VerdantAssassin that's because it's a literal translation

[@RavenKnightYT]

I’ve already begun drafting my Heroes in History for Medjay. I definitely believe that Magistrate is based on Ammit. Great introduction to the hero, Marco! I’m excited to play Medjay and make content for him. :)

Can't wait for that episode. I personally don't get people complaining about the Khopesh: Yeah, it's cool, but people will just compare it to Tiandi or Black Prior anyway. Besides, the Khopesh is extremely cliche.

[@acemarvel1564]

I've been thinking how great it would be if they added an Arabic hero with a scimitar. Or maybe even a Polish hussar simply cause they just look cool as hell. Would buy either one in a heartbeat.

[@PureEvil616]

AND THE WINGED HUSSARS ARRIVED!

[@ocean_booi]

I heard the name “Medjay” and saw the new hero’s face and i thought for a good second it was Bayak from AC: Origins

[@dragonbornexpress5650]

I'm willing to bet the team used Bayek's design as inspiration, though the two characters are clearly not the same.

[@Kruppuchino]

I feel like the crododile sets could be both Sobek and Ammit depending on the headpiece, Sobek is generally depicted with what i can only describe as a top hat and Ammit is more known as having no headpiece whatsoever. I'd personally use a set with the osiris alternate helm with just differing armor for the rest depending on what fits most

[@thelionofjudah5318]

Emote spams cracked me up🤣🤣🤣

[@blastbowman9026]

I feel like the next Hero skin will be for the Kensei since he's the last default vanguard For future outlanders I definitely feel like an Aztec or Mayan warrior is a popular option, but I think if it has to be related to Kensei maybe they could have a Korean fighter or a Mongolian one if we're going for mainland Asia, or maybe a Maori/Polynesian warrior if we want to explore the pacific ocean

[@VeotheVillain]

Next outlander should be an Aztec Warrior with a Macuahuitl

[@MarcoYolo]

Kensei or Orochi (if they're going vanguards first or "story mode" heroes first) are likely next skins for sure, but there's no new hero next season so it doesn't have to relate to them or the skin. I'm only theorizing for season 4!

[@dragonbornexpress5650]

Korean would actually be a cool twist given the amount of games that even feature Korea can be counted on one hand.

[@futuristicbus61]

The walk like an Egyptian got me bro 😭 I still love how you show us a hero’s emote spam

[@shadoweagle0432]

Everybody gansta until you put Medjay into Croc Sport mode

[@MysteriousGir]

In Pirate season we had a tease to Kilauea possibly hinting a Hawaiian or Pacific Islander warrior. I’d guess it might come with a Kensei skin considering the past two skins were the original vanguards and linking it to the various Asian connections in Hawaii.

[@WhiteApeMaui]

Yes I'm definitely hoping for this or a myan warrior probably not this year but I'm sure we'll get either in the future

[@tigrexknight6520]

The sobek armor would make also sense as he is the god of rivers and since medjay can *flawlessly* switch between mods or stances just like the how the river flows.

[@FriendlyGoblinWasTaken]

and also Sobek is the strongest so it also makes sense in a "im really strong and have been given this armor to prove it" sense

[@noahm5709]

also the god of semen

[@masonthewalker]

Thank you, Marco. This has made me infinitely more hyped to play Medjay.

[@spencerbeck8227]

God that camera angle on the dunes of retribution execution is fantastic. I’m definitely buying that the second he comes out.

[@terrorbilly3367]

i image next outlander to be mongolian warrior with a scimitar, reason: he was annoyed that his tiandi neighbor DIDN"T SHUT UP! maybe it wouldn't be a hussar her i want in for honor but mongol with scimitar is the closest we can get especially when gryphon teases mongols in for honor and papa ghenghis needs his horde

Yay new vid

[@aperson3996]

Hmm, I can see it be representative of both Ammit or Sobek. Many have pointed out how it works for Ammit, since she would devour the souls of evil people. However, Sobek also is a god who is believed to protect the people of Egypt, similar to how a Magistrate protected people from criminals. Thats just my interpretation tho

As to who would either caused warrior to come and how, I would safely say one of the knights but I could also say that it would be cool for a samurai to had done something to enrage the warrior's leader of pissed the warrior off themselves. But it would also be cool t hat what I'm describing could also be it's own faction with desert based maps. Idk I would like to hear some opinions on it so what do you think?
