While Honor of Kings may still be carving out its niche among Western gamers, it has undeniably made significant strides with a global release and a spotlight in the Amazon anthology series Secret Level. However, it's the eagerly anticipated action RPG, Honor of Kings: World, that aims to push the franchise to new heights.
A recently released developer diary provides the most comprehensive look yet at Honor of Kings: World, with a particular emphasis on its combat mechanics. The diary showcases the transformation of the familiar Crimson Beast, a popular target for junglers in the original game, into a formidable boss encounter.
Viewers are treated not only to demonstrations of the combat systems but also to insightful commentary from the developers. They explain the mechanics behind summoning various weapons and transitioning to a mage-like skillset with the Chrono Anomaly feature. This contributes to the creation of a dynamic and impressive combo-based combat system, which is vividly showcased in the video.
The dev diary also provides a broad, yet informative, preview of what to expect from Honor of Kings: World. It features familiar heroes from the MOBA, offers glimpses of open-world exploration, and confirms cooperative multiplayer modes. Importantly, the mobile version of the game is highlighted, with a strong focus on optimization to ensure smooth gameplay despite the visually rich effects and graphics.
