The sad situation of the international version of Lien Quan
As you know, Lien Quan Mobile is one of the most popular mobile games in Vietnam at the present time. This game is considered the first international version of Glory of Kings – Tencent's “golden egg” blockbuster in the Chinese market.
Different from the name Lien Quan that Vietnamese gamers often use, the international version of this game is Arena of Valor (AOV), which was released a long time ago and is distributed globally by Level Infinite. However, this version was “estranged” from Level Infinite and Tencent themselves and neglected for such a long time that players even thought it was a “dead game”.
For a long time, AOV has not been updated with new versions, new events, new champions and other content equivalent to the Lien Quan Mobile version. Although there were many complaints and complaints sent to the developer team, the results were not much better.
Tencent intends to “revive” the international Alliance?
Yet recently, Tencent suddenly “turned around” after many years of silence. Specifically, yesterday (January 19), AOV's development team apologized to players on the official Discord channel. They admitted to updating the version too late, and confirmed that AOV in the future will replace NPH Level Infinite, which was taken over by Team Jade.
Some information about AOV changing NPH, possibly “comeback” in the future.
It is known that Team Jade (J1-6) is a new team of Tencent, formed from many previous game production teams, after this “giant” reformed its organizational structure earlier this month. Team Jade is famous for its staff working in games such as Call of Duty: Mobile Edition, Assault Fire…
Overall, this is a good signal because the replacement of NPH shows that Tencent has no intention of giving up AOV at the present time. It is possible that in the near future, the international gaming community will witness a completely new AOV, younger, more impressive and more attractive than ever.
