Honor of Kings World

Almost four years since its official reveal, going from a Monster Hunter-esque title to something more Genshin-like, Honor of Kings: World is coming to GDC 2025. No, there’s no release date and outside of “consoles and PC,” specific platforms have yet to be revealed. However, there is some new work-in-progress gameplay showcasing co-op and some new enemies.

TiMi Studio Group has confirmed a behind-closed-doors playtest for registered media members. The official website is also live, outlining different locations in Jixia, including the Tower of Enlightenment in Jixia Academy, the Springbrook Plains with its ancient ruins and wetlands, and the mountains.

There are also more dangerous places like Dragon Valley (which gets its name from the remains of a giant dragon) and Caelumpila Ruinsaa, previously a soldier enhancement facility with untold secrets.

It’s all very intriguing, though time will tell if we’re any closer to a release. Stay tuned for potential updates in the coming days, and check out more gameplay here.
