The Honor of Kings Regional Professional League is officially live, and it’s bringing the heat across Southeast Asia. With four regional tournaments — Indonesia Kings Laga (IKL), Philippine Kings League (PKL), MY Honor of Kings League (MKL), and the Wildcard Kings Series (WKS) — this season is all about discovering rising stars, securing high-stakes victories, and proving which squads deserve a shot at the Honor of Kings International Championship (KIC) later this year.
Each region will see both partner and qualifier teams battling it out for prestige, prize pools, and the ultimate in-game reward: the exclusive Flowborn skin, given only to the champions of IKL, MKL, and PKL. It’s bragging rights you can show off in every match.

In Kuala Lumpur, the MKL kicks off September 5 to October 19, showcasing Malaysia’s top-tier squads. With Nova Esports, Todak, HomeBois, and Alpha Gaming as anchor teams, the field is stacked, and another $60,000 USD prize pool is on the line.

Honor of Kings Summer Carnival: Culture Meets Competition

Regional icons like XUAN, Juschie, and Karlll are part of the experience, blending cultural immersion with top-tier gaming.
