Level Infinite :

May 1, 2024 - Running until May 24, this year’s High 5 Festival promises to be the biggest to date, with players from Turkey plus those from the MENA and CIS regions and several SEA countries coming together with those from Brazil to participate in events and earn rewards aplenty.
 
Three new Heroes - Yuhuan, Erin and Nezha - join the festivities
The musical Mage Yuhuan arrives in Honor of Kings on May 3, and depending on the tune she plays can protect teammates or attack enemies. Yuhuan’s Ultra makes her untargetable so she can easily avoid taking damage.
 
Available from May 14, the Elf Princess Erin is an agile Marksman who utilises her Mage skills to launch her unique attacks. Erin is at one with the forest and her Ultra showers laurel leaves on the enemy.
 
Reborn in fire, the rebellious Nezha joins the roster on May 29. A Fighter, Nezha roams the lanes on his flaming wheels allowing him to swiftly provide support where needed, dealing damage with his trusty spear.
 
Team up to win BIG 
The High 5 Festival celebrates teamwork and players forming new teams and friend circles will have the chance to earn some great rewards by participating in events including:

  • Perks Card Event - Simply log in to receive Mulan’s Bouncer Skin, Level 5 Arcana experience card and 100 Arcana. But there’s more…

    • All Heroes are free to play and for a limited time five selected Skins, including one S-Class Skin will also be available for free

  • Egg Theft - complete daily missions to earn food for the Overlord, which in turn increases the rate at which the Overlord produces eggs, making even more available to steal and earn rewards.
