King of Avalon celebrates sixth anniversary

Real-time MMO King of Avalon from FunPlus has just celebrated its sixth anniversary.

FunPlus is celebrating the occasion with new content and events, such as the Dragon Flame Feasts – where resources won in battle can be used to cook dishes for a feast – and a Fireworks Workshop, where participants can unlock chests to obtain rewards and gain points.

“It’s an honor to reach this milestone. In the ever-changing industry of mobile gaming, it’s a major achievement to celebrate six years of continuous live service and success,” said FunPlus Chief Business Officer Chris Petrovic. “The latest Frost & Flame expansion of the game, and the arrival of Orlando Bloom as a playable hero has breathed new life into King of Avalon – there’s always more to come and we can’t wait to celebrate with our fans.”
