Homecoming King is one of the last solo missions available. However, it can only be played if all of the missions that come before it have been beaten. This requires a bit of work to unlock Lord Arthur.

During the mission, players will take control of Lord Arthur. They won't be able to use him outside of that until the Homecoming King is complete, so get ready to fight with the noble.
