TiMi Studio Group has officially lifted the curtain on Honor of Kings: World, debuting a brand-new trailer during Gamescom Opening Night Live (ONL) and confirming the game’s first-ever hands-on demo at the event this week in Cologne, Germany.
The trailer, revealed during Geoff Keighley’s annual showcase, gave players their most detailed look yet at Primaera, the breathtaking continent at the heart of the Eastern fantasy multiplayer RPG. From vast landscapes and intricate puzzles to adrenaline-pumping boss battles, the footage highlighted the game’s unique blend of action, storytelling, and exploration.
First Hands-On Demo at Gamescom 2025
Fans won’t have to wait long to dive in themselves. From August 20–24, 2025, Honor of Kings: World will be playable at Gamescom Hall 9, Booth B040, where attendees can test a PC demo featuring cooperative boss battles. The build supports both mouse-and-keyboard and controller play, letting players experience the fast, fluid combat for the very first time.
Big Huang, lead combat designer, expressed the team’s excitement:
“We’ve been working very hard on Honor of Kings: World, and Opening Night Live was the perfect moment to give players a true taste of what’s ahead. Now we can’t wait for visitors to Gamescom to get hands-on with the game themselves.”
What Awaits Players in Honor of Kings: World
TiMi Studio Group is expanding the beloved Honor of Kings franchise into a large-scale, narrative-driven multiplayer RPG with a wide range of activities beyond combat. Players will be able to:
