In a recent live broadcast, Tencent Games revealed the Spring 2026 release window for the upcoming action RPG, Honor of Kings: World.
The game’s launch window was revealed during Tencent Games’ recent live broadcast on Bilibili (as reported by 4Gamer). There, the game got an hour-long gameplay showcase, followed by the announcement of its Spring 2026 launch.
Given that this Honor of Kings: World showcase was in Chinese, it’s possible that the Spring 2026 release window is only for China. Of course, considering how actively Tencent has been showcasing this game internationally (such as in gamescom back in August), there’s a chance that it will get a simultaneous worldwide launch in spring next year.
For now, there’s no official word yet on a global launch window, though we’re hoping to see an announcement soon.
In case you’re unfamiliar, Honor of Kings: World is an upcoming open-world action-RPG from Tencent that is set to expand the Honor of Kings universe. While its gameplay is a major departure from the Honor of Kings MOBA, it has some elements that should be familiar to HOK players. Along with combat elements, the fact that the game will feature characters from the MOBA (albeit with an interesting school setting).
