Honor of Kings Plus Update Details
Honor of Kings Plus introduces Flowborn, a new multi-class hero and an in-game avatar system that serves as a personal extension on the battlefield, allowing players to craft their visual persona by selecting appearances, skin tones, and outfits. This system will debut with a Marksman class on June 24, followed by Tank and Mage roles in July.
Player performance is receiving a dramatic overhaul with the new rating and Star reward system that recognizes impact, even in defeat. Alongside match victories, personal contributions such as highlight-worthy moments (e.g., soloing the enemy’s crystal or clutch performances in unwinnable odds) will significantly influence player ratings and outcomes.
Communication is also improved through real-time voice-to-text and translation features, initially supporting Chinese, English, Indonesian, and Malay.
Balance improvements include the removal of the Central River Sprite, adjusted rewards and spawn rates for lane objectives, rebalanced Red Falcon mechanics, weakened super minions, and a more accessible Teleport Summoner Skill with upgraded visuals.
The Honor Pass has been reworked into a more rewarding system, where mission progress, highlight performances, and campaign completions fuel experience gains. Players who update will receive a free Elite Pass for one month, and the debut KWC-themed Pass offers unlockables such as the Nuwa-Syzygy Moonlight and Alessio EWC skins. Those who opt for the Deluxe Pass also receive 398 tokens for future passes.
Lastly, the Want It, Get It! event kicks off a limited-time reward frenzy. By completing pre-update tasks and redeeming tokens after June 24, players can earn a 1688-Token voucher usable on select skins, stackable with no minimum spend. From June 28 to 30, all pre-June 24 skins, including rare and legendary ones, will also be free to use.
