Arcade Mode features fun and exhilarating variants of the classic Honor of Kings experience designed to attract those seeking a more casual way to play and initially offers two new games:
 
Bubble Scramble - In this fast paced 3v3 mode players fight to collect Easter Eggs, with the team carrying a total of 20 eggs for over 20 seconds claiming victory. But be warned, if a player is killed all their collected eggs are dropped.
 
Mountain of Flames - Honor of Kings turns up the heat with a map featuring rivers of molten lava. Teams of 5v5 will obtain special skills allowing them to push opponents into the lava inflicting major damage. First team to 30 kills wins.
