While Honor of Kings might be a fresh face to many gamers in the West, it has already established itself globally, even featuring in the Amazon anthology series Secret Level. However, it's the upcoming action RPG Honor of Kings: World that promises to take the franchise to new heights.
A recently released dev diary provides an in-depth exploration of Honor of Kings: World, with a primary focus on its combat mechanics. The familiar Crimson Beast, a staple target for junglers in the original game, has been transformed into a formidable boss in this new installment. This dev diary not only showcases the combat system but also includes insightful commentary from the developers. They explain the mechanics of summoning different weapons and transitioning to a mage-like skillset through the use of Chrono Anomaly, all of which contribute to a dynamic and impressive combo-based battle system.
The dev diary also offers a broad yet open overview of what to expect from Honor of Kings: World. It features familiar heroes from the MOBA making their return, glimpses of open-world exploration, and confirmation of cooperative multiplayer elements. Importantly, the mobile version of the game is highlighted, with a strong emphasis on optimization during the development process. This focus on performance is crucial, especially given the visually stunning effects and graphical enhancements showcased in the video.
