Honor of Kings (simplified Chinese: 王者荣耀; traditional Chinese: 王者榮耀; pinyin: Wángzhě Róngyào, informally translated as "King of Glory," or transliterated as Wangzhe Rongyao) is a multiplayer online battle arena game developed by TiMi Studio Group and published by Tencent Games for the iOS and Android mobile platforms. First released in Mainland China on November 26, 2015, the game has become one of the most relevant MOBA games in the country. An international adaptation titled Arena of Valor, was released on October 12, 2016 in Taiwan; it uses the same game engine but the user interface and hero designs were heavily changed to accommodate the Western market. In June 2022, Level Infinite, the publisher of Arena of Valor, announced that Honor of Kings would be released globally in late 2022. In May 2024, a worldwide launch was announced for June 20, 2024, following pre-releases in Brazil and Turkey as well as countries in the Middle East, North Africa, and the Commonwealth of Independent States (former Soviet Union countries). #hok #honorofkings #hokstudio #bleach #uryuishida #houyi
