Overview
Dream Realm events (梦境活动, Mèngjìng Huódòng) are time-limited hero-themed challenge events in Honor of Kings: World. A launch-week wave of Dream Realm events went live with the April 10, 2026 S0 public test, and as of April 12, 2026 the Tencent S0 portal lists four currently active events and one concluded event. Dream Realm events are NOT the same as the permanent Dream Realm dungeons (梦境奇谭) endgame gear-farming loop; they are cosmetic event tracks with featured-hero framing.
Launch-Week Event Status (April 12, 2026)
Per direct fetch of the Tencent S0 portal on April 12, 2026:
Featured Hero | Chinese | Status |

[object Object] | 东方曜 | 现已开启 (active) |
[object Object] | 孙膑 | 现已开启 (active) |

Note: the wiki-link cells in the table above render as simplified strings. See each hero's dedicated article for their full kit and launch-event content.
Important: Leng Chun is NOT confirmed by current community data. Earlier drafts of this wiki that counted Leng Chun among the Dream Realm event heroes were incorrect. The correct breakdown is four currently active events plus Xi Shi's concluded event, for a total of five distinct launch-week events.
Format
A covering the Cloud Honor of Kings early access period (March 28, 2026) describes the Dream Realm event format for two of the heroes:
Dongfang Yao "抢先与东方曜一同挑战猩红神兽" ("Get an early chance to challenge the Crimson Divine Beast alongside Dongfang Yao"). The event frames a themed boss-challenge mission featuring the hero.
Sun Bin "穿梭世界时空虚影...累积世界探索度即可兑换限定面饰" ("Traverse the Dreamscape world's spacetime phantoms... accumulate world exploration progress to exchange for limited face accessories"). Sun Bin's event uses an exploration-and-tokens loop rather than a single boss challenge.
Both formats share a common structure: themed story or combat content featuring one hero, completion-based progress, and cosmetic-reward exchange. The rewards are limited titles (限定称号), limited face accessories (限定面饰), and journey gifts (旅程馈赠).
What Dream Realm Events Are Not
Not permanent hero unlocks: the launch-hero guide and launch-hero handbook list how each of the 11 Resonances can be acquired (story, battle pass, direct purchase at approximately 398 CNY per character, and event content), and neither lists Dream Realm events as a confirmed permanent unlock path
Not the permanent Dream Realm dungeon loop the permanent max-level gear farm is called Dream Realm dungeons (梦境奇谭) and is a separate stamina-gated endgame system
Not free-hero-trial flights in the traditional MOBA sense the launch coverage does not confirm that players must already own the featured hero to participate; the events are framed as content featuring the hero, not as trial ownership windows
Not Publicly Confirmed
Exact duration of each currently active Dream Realm event
Why Xi Shi's event concluded first (plausibly because it ran during the Cloud Honor of Kings early access period before the PC launch, but no primary source confirms this reason)
Full reward list per event beyond the generic title / face accessory / journey gift categories
Whether players must own the featured hero to participate
Whether progress carries over to the same hero's next event in a future season
Permanent Hero Side Content
Launch coverage treats Dream Realm Events as a separate lane from the permanent hero-side systems. Hero Record handles Resonance-specific record tasks and default appearance unlocks, while Companion Invitations are partner story quests triggered from Social Circle > Partners.
In practice, that means clearing a Dream Realm event does not replace Hero Record progression or invitation quests. They run alongside each other as different pieces of the launch activity loop.
