Cooking and food are part of the crafting and lifestyle systems in Honor of Kings: World. The development team has confirmed that farming, gathering, and crafting activities exist as counterbalances to the game's combat-focused content, giving players relaxing activities between boss fights and dungeon runs.
The following aspects of cooking and food systems have been confirmed through developer interviews and press previews:
Feature | Details |
|---|---|
Farming and gathering | Players can farm crops and gather ingredients in areas like the Harvest Fields in Dreamweave Plains, where students at Jixia Academy practice life skills. |
Crafting stations | The game features crafting stations in settlements and the hub city of Chang'an where gathered materials can be processed into usable items. |
Life skill progression | Lifestyle activities like cooking tie into a broader progression system separate from combat leveling, giving dedicated crafters their own advancement path. |
While specific recipes, ingredient lists, and buff values have not been publicly documented, the cooking system is expected to follow patterns common in open-world action RPGs:
Feature | Expected Function |
|---|---|
Recipes | Combine gathered ingredients to create food items |
Stat Buffs | Cooked food provides temporary combat bonuses (ATK, DEF, HP regen) |
Healing Items | Food serves as an alternative or supplement to potion-based healing |
Recipe Discovery | New recipes unlocked through exploration, NPCs, or experimentation |
Quality Tiers | Higher-quality ingredients and recipes produce stronger buffs |
The Harvest Fields in Dreamweave Plains have been specifically mentioned in press coverage as a location where farming activities take place. The home building system planned for the v1.2 update also includes farms, suggesting that players will eventually be able to grow ingredients on their own property.
Cooking is one component of the broader crafting and lifestyle system, which includes equipment crafting, consumable creation, and housing item production. Resources gathered through farming and exploration feed into multiple crafting disciplines, creating an interconnected economy where life skill activities support combat progression.
In most action RPGs with cooking systems, food buffs become increasingly important at higher difficulty levels. For Honor of Kings: World, this means cooking may be particularly relevant when tackling 8-player raids and Nightmare-difficulty dungeons where every stat advantage matters. Preparing the right food buffs before a difficult encounter could be the difference between success and failure.
Note: Specific recipes, ingredient locations, buff values, and cooking mechanics will be documented once the game launches and the system is fully accessible.
