Exciting times are ahead for fans of Honor of Kings, as Tencent's latest announcements have set the stage for a major multimedia expansion. One of the highlights from the recent Tencent Spark showcase is the upcoming animated series, Honor of Kings: Destiny, set to premiere on Crunchyroll. This series will spotlight the beloved character Kai, aiming to capture the hearts of viewers much like Arcane did for League of Legends fans.
Tencent's ambitions don't stop there. They're also planning a collaboration with the popular Chinese animated film Ne Zha 2, although this might primarily appeal to audiences in China. This move underscores Tencent's strategy to broaden Honor of Kings' reach and appeal across different media platforms.
Honor of Kings has been making strides to attract Western audiences, including a feature in the Amazon anthology Secret Level. However, Honor of Kings: Destiny could be the most significant step yet towards global recognition. While unconfirmed sources suggest a release date of May 31st on Crunchyroll, early trailers hint at a visually stunning series. The key to its success will be its ability to make the complex lore of the MOBA accessible and engaging to a broader audience, much like the acclaimed Arcane did.
With all this exciting news, if you're feeling inspired to dive back into Honor of Kings, make sure you're ready for the challenge. Check out our Honor of Kings tier list to stay updated on the best characters to use in your battles.
