However, he is NOT in the verified S0 Season launch roster (April 10, 2026) as a playable Resonance. His role at launch is as an NPC Jixia Academy sage and the creator of Dreaming Word Lakeside (梦语湖畔), a dream-training ground named after him.4455Zhuangzi is not in the confirmed S0 Season launch roster of Honor of Kings: World (April 10, 2026). The verified 11 S0 Resonances are: Child of the Primal Flow, Dongfang Yao, Xi Shi, Meng Ya, Master Lu Ban, Sun Bin, Wang Zhaojun, Jialuo, Mulan, Kai, and Leng Chun. Zhuangzi has appeared in pre-launch trailers or demos in some cases, but has not been officially confirmed as a playable Resonance at the S0 launch. Any specific HoKW ability descriptions on earlier versions of this page should be treated as unverified.6677Role in HoKW Lore889-Zhuangzi is one of the Three Sages who lead Jixia Academy alongside Fuzi and Mozi. Baidu Baike primary text confirms that Zhuangzi created Dreaming Word Lakeside (梦语湖畔) as a dream-training ground where students can explore meditative and Flow-based self-cultivation. His philosophical tradition within Jixia corresponds to Taoist-style contemplation, contrasting with Fuzi's Martial Way and Mozi's Mechanism Way.9+Zhuangzi is one of the Three Sages who lead Jixia Academy alongside Fuzi and Mozi. primary text confirms that Zhuangzi created Dreaming Word Lakeside (梦语湖畔) as a dream-training ground where students can explore meditative and Flow-based self-cultivation.

He is famous for the "butterfly dream" parable, in which he questions whether he is Zhuangzi who dreamed he was a butterfly or a butterfly now dreaming he is Zhuangzi. The theme of reality versus dream directly informs his HoKW role as the creator of a dream training ground.14141515MOBA Identity16161717In the Honor of Kings MOBA, Zhuangzi is a support hero whose kit features dream-themed abilities, shields, and crowd control. Earlier pre-launch Honor of Kings: World coverage suggested his HoKW adaptation would shift him toward a tank role, but his S0 launch status is as an NPC Sage, not a playable Resonance. If he is added as a playable Resonance in a future season, his kit is likely to emphasize area shields, sustained healing, or dream-magic crowd control.18181919Availability in Honor of Kings: World20202121Zhuangzi (庄周) is a hero from the Honor of Kings MOBA. As of the Honor of Kings: World S0 Season launch (April 10, 2026), Zhuangzi is not a playable Resonance (共鸣) in the open-world action RPG. The S0 launch roster contains only 11 playable Resonances: Child of the Primal Flow, Dongfang Yao, Xi Shi, Meng Ya, Master Lu Ban, Sun Bin, Wang Zhaojun, Jialuo, Mulan, Kai, Leng Chun.
