Honor of Kings is becoming a live-service open-world game, called Honor of Kings World. 

The following news is from Kotaku, which reports that World will be following in the vein of Genshin Impact. It will have live-service components, a global launch, and locales and a narrative based on or at least inspired by Chinese mythology.

The new trailer, which launched over the weekend, features a gorgeous and flashy open world significantly more open than that seen in Honor of Kings…which makes sense considering Honor of Kings: World is meant to be an open world title. As noted by Kotaku, World will likely end up being massive – its MOBA predecessor, Honor of Kings, is one of the biggest games in the world, In 2020, we will surpass 100,000,000 daily gamers 

It doesn’t hurt that it has Chinese entertainment conglomerate Tencent’s backing, too. Tencent initially wanted to create a mobile version of League of Legends.Riot Games rejected it, so Honor of Kings instead was created by TiMi Studio. 

Similar to Genshin Impact, World appears to be a third-person action-RPG set in a fantastical world filled with different towns and cities, NPCs, enemies, and more. World’s release date has yet to be announced. However, it is being launched worldwide on multiple platforms (presumably PlayStation 3, Xbox and mobile), as well as PC.
