Honor of Kings continues to deepen its connection with Southeast Asian players as the Philippine-inspired hero Lapulapu officially receives Tagalog and Bisaya voice lines, now live as part of the game’s latest Bonds Update.
The localization update allows players to experience Lapulapu speaking languages closer to home, reinforcing Honor of Kings’ commitment to cultural representation and regional authenticity—especially for its growing Philippine community.
Lapulapu Speaks Tagalog and Bisaya In-Game
Lapulapu’s newly added Tagalog and Bisaya voice lines are now available to all players who have their game language set to Tagalog. Since the hero’s debut earlier this year, the Honor of Kings community in the Philippines has actively called for localized voice-over support—and this update delivers on that request.
Hearing Lapulapu speak in native Philippine languages adds an extra layer of immersion, bringing the hero’s identity and inspiration closer to the hearts of local players.
Strengthening Honor of Kings’ Philippine Presence
The addition of Tagalog and Bisaya voice lines follows a series of localization and regional initiatives aimed at making players feel at home in Hero’s Gorge. Over the past few months, Honor of Kings has expanded its Philippine-focused content with:
- Full Tagalog language localization
- PKL announcer and voice packs
- Custom Flowborn appearances
- Lapulapu’s inclusion as a playable hero inspired by Philippine history
Together, these efforts highlight Honor of Kings’ ongoing dedication to celebrating local cultures within its global MOBA experience.
Bonds Update Introduces New Hero Chicha
Beyond Lapulapu’s voice update, the Honor of Kings Bonds Update also welcomes a brand-new hero: Chicha.
Armed with a versatile arsenal from her Divine Armory, Chicha is designed to adapt to different combat situations, giving players flexible strategies and dynamic playstyles across matches.
Balance Changes and Gameplay Updates
The Bonds Update includes a wide range of hero and equipment balance adjustments, refining gameplay across multiple roles and metas. Players looking to dive deeper into the changes can find the full patch notes on the official Honor of Kings website.
A More Personal MOBA Experience
With the introduction of Tagalog and Bisaya voice lines for Lapulapu, Honor of Kings takes another meaningful step toward creating a more personal and culturally resonant experience for Filipino players.
As the game continues to evolve with new heroes, localization efforts, and gameplay updates, Honor of Kings strengthens its position as a truly global MOBA that celebrates its regional communities.
