Wrapping Up a Wonderful 2025! Honor of Kings, the world’s most‑played Multiplayer Online Battle Arena (MOBA) game, rolls out fun in‑game activities and exclusive new skin series to celebrate the year and welcome the Honor of Kings community to 2026. Players can now represent their nations, participate in an exciting 5v5v5 e‑sports inspired in-game battle, and unlock exclusive Year of Tiger skins.
Claim Your National Honor As An eSports Star
From now until February 10, 2026 at 5:00 am GMT (1:00 pm PHT), players can participate in the Path To eSports in‑game event, play the role of national eSports competitors representing their country, climb the ranks by staying active, unlock prizes and rise to become top‑ranked eSports stars.
• Spriteling Troop: Players can place their national flags in-game to grant buffs to nearby teammates within a certain range.
• Tri-National Clash: Players can form three teams of five, each representing a different country through AI matching, and compete against one another to claim the eSports championship. Players earn points by defeating enemy heroes or towers. Once any team reaches 100 points, the final battle begins, and the two trailing teams form an alliance. Victory is achieved when the leading team either holds first place for 90 seconds or destroys one of the opposition’s towers. Players can also unlock the extra skills from Spriteling Troop.
