Surfaced unique region geography in opening; moved S0 launch-build status disclaimer to end (2026-05-01)
1-Launch Status: This region name appeared in pre-release English marketing materials but has NOT been confirmed as a playable region in the April 10, 2026 S0 launch build by any independent Chinese primary source. It may be a pre-release placeholder, a renamed region, or a zone reserved for a future content season. The S0 launch build is centered on the Jixia Academy cluster, which represents approximately one tenth (1/10) of the full designed map. The article below is retained as a reference and will be updated or rewritten as launch-build region naming is verified. [NOT-IN-S0-PRERELEASE-REGION-2026-04-12]1+The First Lands is the original landing site of the Ark in ancient lore and the birthplace of civilization on Primaera, now defined by frequent earthquakes and dangerous inhabitants that turn it into a forsaken wilderness.22Overview44The First Lands is the original landing site of the Ark in ancient times and the birthplace of civilization on Primaera in Honor of Kings: World. This region holds the deepest historical significance of any area on the continent, as it is where the ancestors of all Primaera's peoples first set foot on the world. However, the region's current state stands in stark contrast to its historical importance: frequent earthquakes, natural disasters, and dangerous inhabitants have made the First Lands one of the most perilous places in the game.66Few inhabitants of Primaera venture to the First Lands in the present day. The region's instability and the powerful creatures that roam its landscape have turned what was once the cradle of civilization into a forsaken wilderness. Only the bravest or most desperate travelers attempt to explore its ruins, seeking the remnants of the Ark civilization that still lie buried beneath the unstable ground.88Geography and Environment1010The First Lands is characterized by geological instability. Earthquakes strike the region with alarming frequency, opening crevasses in the earth, collapsing structures, and reshaping the terrain over time. This tectonic activity has created a landscape of fractured ground, tilted rock formations, and unstable cliffs that can give way without warning.1212Natural disasters beyond earthquakes also plague the region. Volcanic vents release toxic gases in some areas, flash floods surge through low-lying zones during seismic events, and the ground itself is riddled with sinkholes that can swallow unwary travelers. The environment itself is an active threat that players must navigate carefully.1414Despite the devastation, the First Lands retains traces of its former significance. Massive ruins of Ark-era construction jut from the earth at odd angles, partially buried by centuries of geological upheaval. These structures are built from materials and using techniques that surpass anything found in modern Primaera, hinting at the advanced civilization that once landed here.1616Remnants of the Ark Civilization1818The Ark civilization refers to the ancient people who arrived on Primaera aboard a vessel or structure known as the Ark. Their landing in the First Lands marked the beginning of civilization on the continent. The technology and knowledge they brought with them formed the foundation upon which all subsequent Primaera civilizations were built.2020Remnants of the Ark civilization are scattered throughout the First Lands. Ancient machinery, inscribed tablets, sealed chambers, and structural fragments can be found amid the rubble. Many of these artifacts remain partially functional despite the passage of immense time, suggesting a level of engineering sophistication that has been lost to the modern inhabitants of Primaera.2222Researching and recovering these remnants is one of the primary motivations for expeditions to the First Lands. The knowledge contained in Ark artifacts could reshape understanding of Primaera's history and potentially unlock capabilities that have been forgotten for millennia.2424Dangerous Inhabitants2626The First Lands is home to some of the most dangerous creatures in all of Primaera. Large Ferali of extraordinary size and power roam the region, having grown to immense proportions in the absence of human habitation. Demons and other monstrous entities also inhabit the ruins, drawn to the residual energy of the Ark civilization's technology.2828These creatures represent a significant escalation in difficulty compared to enemies found in more settled regions. The combination of powerful Ferali, environmental hazards, and the region's remote location makes the First Lands a destination suited for well-prepared, high-level players. Solo exploration is extremely risky, and even organized groups must proceed with caution.3030Role in the Game3232The First Lands functions as an endgame exploration region where experienced players can test their abilities against the most challenging content the open world has to offer. The region's lore rewards drive players to brave its dangers in pursuit of Ark artifacts and the ancient knowledge they contain.3434Quests in the First Lands tend to focus on exploration, excavation, and survival against overwhelming threats. The geological instability adds a dynamic element to exploration, as earthquakes can open new pathways to previously inaccessible areas or collapse routes that were available moments earlier. This creates an exploration experience that feels different on each visit.3636Availability in Honor of Kings: World3838The First Lands (三分之地) is referenced in Honor of Kings: World as a planned future region. Tencent has confirmed the continent layout includes this zone, but it is NOT yet playable as of the S0 Season launch (April 10, 2026).4040The First Lands (三分之地) is described in MOBA lore as the landing site of the Ark that brought humans to Primaera. It is a foundational canonical region but is not part of the Honor of Kings: World S0 launch playable map.4242For the current playable map, see Open World Map and Primaera.44+Launch Build Status46+Launch Status: This region name appeared in pre-release English marketing materials but has NOT been confirmed as a playable region in the April 10, 2026 S0 launch build by any independent Chinese primary source.
