Honor of Kings, the most-played 5v5 mobile MOBA in the world, provides the pinnacle of mobile competition. Immerse yourself on the battlefield alongside your teammates, select from unique heroes endowed with extraordinary skills, and revel in the hysteria of intense team battles. Five players advance along three pathways during each battle in an attempt to destroy the enemy's crystal and bring down nine towers in order to secure victory.

Whoever is skilled in the roles of Mage, Marksman, Tank, Warrior, Assassin, or Support has the potential to become the main player. Wherever you play, the fast-paced teamfights guarantee an enormous amount of excitement. Competence and teamwork are the only factors that matter.
