Honor of Kings has begun its Anniversary Celebration, putting a new Tank/Support hero, several login-driven giveaways and a run of limited-time activities on the calendar from October 21 into early November. The event slate includes Dunshan’s arrival, a collaboration skin based on the Wooden Pagoda of Yingxian County, the return of LIMBO Wish, and a farming activity with its own progression and reward currency.
The practical takeaway is that the celebration is not one single reward track. Some items come from simply logging in during narrow windows, while others require repeated daily participation, event-specific currencies, social sharing, or a separate draw-board system. Players interested in a particular cosmetic or reward should check its individual dates rather than treating the anniversary period as one catch-all deadline.
Dunshan joins as a Tank/Support hero
Dunshan is available in the October 21 update. Classified as a Tank/Support, he can transform into a shield, protecting teammates and reducing incoming damage. In multiplayer battle games, a Tank is generally a durable character designed to absorb pressure or control space, while a Support contributes directly to the team’s survival or opportunities. Dunshan’s shield form places him firmly in that defensive, teammate-oriented role.
Players who took part in the October 15 pre-launch event can receive Dunshan for free. Everyone else can obtain him for 13,888 Starstones or 588 Tokens. There is also a first-week Token discount of 50%, reducing that price to 294 Tokens.
That distinction matters because the pre-launch participation reward and the discounted Token offer are separate routes. The free Dunshan reward is tied to having participated earlier, whereas the discount is an alternative for players who did not. The supplied details do not state how long the first-week reduction remains active beyond its first-week description, so players planning to use Tokens should verify the in-game timer rather than assume it lasts through every anniversary event.
Login rewards start immediately, with a second key window on October 24
From October 21 through November 5, cumulative logins unlock a free anniversary creator voice pack. “Cumulative” is important here: the reward is tied to total logins over the event period, not necessarily an uninterrupted daily streak. The event description does not specify the exact number of logins needed, so the most reliable approach is to open the event page in game and follow its displayed progress requirement.
A larger group of anniversary rewards becomes relevant from October 24. Players who received last year’s Decade of Promise pack can open it between October 24 and November 4 for 400 to 2,000 Honor Points and one random Epic or Legend skin. Players who already own every skin in that reward pool instead receive 2,000 Honor Points.
Honor Points are a reward currency within this anniversary package, while Epic and Legend identify skin tiers. A skin is a cosmetic appearance for a hero, not a new playable character. The random skin outcome means eligible owners of the prior pack should expect variation in the cosmetic result, except in the explicitly stated all-owned-pool case, where the compensation is fixed at 2,000 Honor Points.

There is also a route for players who missed the original Decade of Promise pack. Through the Pack Transfer event, a player can get a share code from somebody who owns the pack and redeem a Decade of Promise Sharing Pack. That route guarantees 400 Honor Points. It is not described as granting the random Epic or Legend skin, so it should be treated as a separate, more limited reward path rather than a replacement with identical contents.
Finally, logging in specifically on October 24 or October 25 grants 400 Honor Points, an Anniversary Flowborn outfit, an Anniversary Flowborn outfit item and an anniversary avatar frame pack. These dates are much shorter than the November 4 and November 5 windows elsewhere in the celebration, making them the clearest dates to prioritize for anyone who only has time for a quick check-in.
Millennium Tower Dunshan is earned through daily standee activity
The Anniversary Celebration also introduces Millennium Tower Dunshan, a collaboration skin inspired by the Wooden Pagoda of Yingxian County. It becomes redeemable on October 29 through the anniversary skin event.
The event uses collectible standees, which are temporary event items rather than physical collectibles. Players acquire them each day by logging in, playing matches and sharing with friends. They then merge their two highest-scoring standees for points, with one merge allowed per day. Those points can be spent in the event shop on available rewards, including Millennium Tower Dunshan once the skin’s October 29 redemption date arrives.
The structure creates two operational constraints. First, the merge limit means that accumulating standees does not translate into unlimited same-day point generation. Second, standees are cleared at the daily reset. In plain terms, players should not save standees with the expectation of carrying them into a later day; they need to use the day’s highest-scoring pair before reset if they want the merge opportunity to count.
Because match play and friend sharing are both listed among the daily collection methods, the event mixes normal gameplay activity with a social step. The announcement does not give the exact number of standees, points or shop cost required for the skin. It does, however, make clear that regular attention to the daily cycle is more relevant than a one-time burst of play. That is particularly true for anyone aiming at a reward that does not open for redemption until October 29.
LIMBO Wish returns on October 30 with stated reward milestones
LIMBO Wish returns on October 30 with new additions, including a Gao Changgong skin. This activity uses Lucky Draw Vouchers to flip tiles on a draw board. Players can flip one tile at a time or make up to five flips at once.
Vouchers come from activity missions or can be purchased. The celebration details say that activity missions can provide enough free Lucky Draw Vouchers to unlock the Rare skin, which sets a useful expectation for players hoping to participate without purchasing vouchers. It does not say that mission-earned vouchers are sufficient to reach the later Epic or Legend milestones.
The draw board has explicit guarantees: a Rare skin within 10 flips, a new Epic skin within 20 flips, and two new Legend skins at the 30th and 36th flips. A guarantee, often called a pity or milestone system in games with randomized draws, is a stated ceiling on when a listed reward will arrive. It does not necessarily reveal what comes from every earlier flip, nor does it remove the need to account for the number of vouchers needed to reach later thresholds.
For planning purposes, the milestones make the system more legible than a wholly open-ended draw. Players pursuing only the free Rare reward can focus on activity missions. Those considering vouchers beyond that point should distinguish between the 20-flip Epic checkpoint and the 30th and 36th-flip Legend rewards. The supplied information confirms the milestones but does not state voucher prices, mission totals, or the full contents of the draw board.
A farm event adds its own progression loop
October 30 also brings a farming event. Players will build a farm by clearing plots, purchasing seed packs, planting crops, watering them, harvesting their produce and selling it. Sales award farming coins and EXP.
EXP, or experience, is used to level up the farm. Farm levels unlock additional features, including hero-themed crops and friend visits. Farming coins are spent in the Shop, while completing the crop collection unlocks extra rewards. One listed reward is a LIMBO/Halloween-themed Flowborn outfit.
Although the activity has a calmer theme than a match, it still has a conventional progression economy: actions produce crops, crops become coins and EXP, levels unlock more systems, and coins return to the Shop as purchasing power. Players who want the extra collection rewards will likely need to look beyond simply harvesting a few crops, since the announcement identifies crop collection completion as the condition for those additional items.
The friend-visit feature is another reminder that this anniversary package regularly uses community-facing hooks, whether through the standee event’s sharing requirement, the Decade of Promise share codes, or the farm’s social visits. None of those mechanics changes the core competitive role of Dunshan, but together they make the celebration a mix of hero acquisition, cosmetic collection and short-form event progression.
What to prioritize during the celebration
For a minimal-effort reward plan, the dated login opportunities are the most time-sensitive: the October 24 or 25 anniversary login bundle, followed by cumulative logins for the creator voice pack through November 5. Eligible owners of the prior Decade of Promise pack should also remember its October 24 to November 4 opening window.
For cosmetic-focused players, Millennium Tower Dunshan requires attention to the standee routine before and after its October 29 redemption availability, while LIMBO Wish starts October 30 and has its own voucher-and-flip track. The farming event launches the same day, meaning players may have multiple separate activities to manage rather than a single objective list.

The main dates are now set: Dunshan and the voice-pack login period begin October 21; the special anniversary login rewards begin October 24; Millennium Tower Dunshan can be redeemed starting October 29; and LIMBO Wish plus the farming event arrive October 30. With several systems running on different schedules, checking the relevant in-game event pages is the best way to confirm remaining time, progress and redemption requirements.
