Revision 4

Overview

Honor of Kings: World has been an NVIDIA partner title since its public technical reveal at Computex 2023 on May 31, 2023. At that event, NVIDIA announced that the game would support both DLSS 3 (including frame generation on GeForce RTX 40-series cards) and ray tracing. The partnership has carried through every subsequent public showing and remains in place for the Spring 2026 launch window.

Computex 2023 Reveal

At Computex 2023 in Taipei, NVIDIA used its GeForce announcements to highlight a batch of upcoming titles committing to DLSS 3 and ray tracing. Honor of Kings: World appeared alongside other Eastern-market AAA games including Legend of Ymir and Ash Echoes. NVIDIA's GeForce News post on the event presented a 4K gameplay trailer and framed Honor of Kings: World as one of the showcase titles for DLSS 3 frame generation on the then-new RTX 40-series GPUs. This was the first public confirmation that the game was targeting high-end PC hardware and ray tracing features, not only mobile performance.

What the Partnership Enables

Why NVIDIA Support Matters

• DLSS 3 frame generation lets lower-tier RTX 40-series cards sustain 60 FPS or higher at 4K with ray tracing enabled, which matters for a cross-platform game pitched as visually competitive with dedicated console titles

• The RTX 2060 minimum confirms that ray tracing is supported even on older RTX hardware at reduced settings, a commitment TiMi made early rather than gating features to the newest cards

• The partnership gives NVIDIA a flagship Eastern market showpiece and gives TiMi access to driver-side optimization and marketing reach

Ongoing Relationship

Since the Computex 2023 reveal, Honor of Kings: World has kept NVIDIA's DLSS and ray tracing support language in every major PC-facing announcement. The partnership has not been publicly updated with new features (such as DLSS 4 or frame generation on lower-tier cards) in the materials we have seen as of April 2026. Expect the Spring 2026 launch build to support the same feature set confirmed at Computex 2023, with potential updates if NVIDIA releases newer DLSS revisions before launch.

Cloud Gaming

Outside of the NVIDIA partnership, Honor of Kings: World has also confirmed support for Tencent Cloud Gaming, which was included in the February 2026 China closed beta as one of the test platforms. Cloud access gives players who cannot run the game on local hardware an alternative path to high-quality visuals and should complement the NVIDIA partnership at launch.
