The Addictive "Honor of Kings Chess" Finally Gets a Release Date

Summary

Today (August 27), Honor of Kings Chess (Wangzhe Wanxiangqi) officially announced that it will launch on September 10, with total pre-registrations surpassing 70 million. During the livestream, magician Liu Qian revealed the release date through a clever card trick, a highlight that sparked lively discussions. Since the start of the beta testing phases, "addictive" (shangtou) has become the most common word players use to describe the game. In community discussions, many say they enjoy the game because it does not require complex economy management and provides timely feedback. Some players have accumulated around 300 hours of play since the early tests, with a record of 10 hours in a single day. Others describe it as "ten minutes after work, happiness for the whole evening." These reactions show that the game's appeal is not merely due to the Honor of Kings IP or pre-launch hype—the gameplay itself keeps players engaged with positive feedback loops. The release date announcement gives eager players a clear timeframe, and the 70 million pre-registrations signal that the auto-battler genre still has huge potential on mobile. It may also intensify competition in this category.
