'Honor of Kings' introduces its first Filipino hero, Lapulapu

Lapulapu is now part of "Honor of Kings!"

The world’s most played mobile MOBA (multiplayer online battle arena) on Friday announced Lapulapu as its first Filipino hero. He is set to arrive in the game on November 21.

Lapulapu is introduced as a datu of Nectam.

Western invaders want to know the secret of Nectam and they are ready to colonize it. However, Lapulapu has supernatural powers. He can attack the invaders like a sea creature. But the more he uses his powers, the more he starts to turn to stone. He knows that his time will come, so he uses his leftover powers to protect Nectam.

"Honor of Kings" is available on the Apple App Store and Google Play.
