Honor of Queens tournament will showcase female Honor of Kings players at KIC 2025

The Honor of Kings International Championship 2025 will also include the Honor of Queens tournament, which will highlight top female players in the competitive MOBA. 

From November 15th to the 30th, the women's only competition will see teams of five fight for the lion's share of $5,400. 

Honor of Queens to showcase female players

Honor of Queens will have two stages at the championship, both taking place during the KIC Mini Battle open-bracket community event. 

The Open Qualifiers will be November 15th to the 18th and the 20th to the 23rd. These will be LAN events at the Shooting Gallery Hall. Four teams will compete each day in best-of-one single elimination brackets. The top team from each day will qualify for the Playoffs. 

This leaves just eight teams. They will compete at the Ayala Mall in Manila Bay in a single-elimination best-of-one format. The Semi-Final and Grand Final will be best-of-three. 

All-female teams that want to take part can register here until November 23rd. 

Meanwhile, the Honor of Kings International Championship will be November 14th through the 30th, with 16 teams competing for a $1 million prize pool. It's a bit jarring to see the prize pool difference between the main circuit and the women's, but Tencent has shared that it plans to improve its female scene as time goes on. 

The top teams from KIC will qualify for the Challenger Cup 2025, which will allow them to compete against the top King Pro League teams from China. A chance to prove yourself against China is going to be an exciting but challenging one, as Honor of Kings continues to be the top esport in China.
