While Honor of Kings may be a relatively new phenomenon to gamers in the West, it has already made a significant impact with its global release and even a feature in the Amazon anthology series Secret Level. However, it's the upcoming action RPG, Honor of Kings: World, that aims to elevate the franchise to new heights.
Now, fans can delve into a brand-new developer diary that provides the most comprehensive look at Honor of Kings: World to date. The spotlight is firmly on the combat mechanics, showcasing the familiar Crimson Beast—a favorite target for junglers in the original Honor of Kings—transformed into a formidable boss.
The diary not only highlights the combat systems but also includes insightful commentary from the developers. They explain how players can summon various weapons and switch to a more mage-like skillset with Chrono Anomaly. This feature contributes to an impressive combo-based battle system, which is demonstrated in action.
What's Coming Up
Beyond the combat showcase, the developer diary offers a basic yet fairly open overview of what to expect from Honor of Kings: World. It features familiar heroes from the MOBA making appearances, glimpses of open-world exploration, and confirmation of co-operative multiplayer.
Significantly, the diary also showcases the mobile version of Honor of Kings: World, with a strong emphasis on optimization as a crucial aspect of the development process. This is particularly reassuring given the high-quality effects and graphics displayed in the video.
