Day one of ChinaJoy 2025 saw Huawei’s Gaming Center emerge as a major player, showcasing over 50 titles, including heavy hitters like “Honor of Kings” (王者荣耀), “Light and Night” (光与夜之恋), “Girls’ Frontline 2: Exilium” (少女前线2：追放), “Jade Dynasty 2” (诛仙2), “Plants vs. Zombies 3,” and “NBA 2K Showdown” (NBA巅峰对决). Their expansive 1,000㎡ HarmonyOS gaming zone officially opened its doors, immediately drawing crowds to its six dedicated game booths and immersive experience areas. With HarmonyOS 5 adoption surpassing 10 million devices, developers are increasingly gravitating towards the HarmonyOS gaming ecosystem, eager to unlock its potential.
All-Star Lineup: National Games Lead the HarmonyOS Ecosystem
The HarmonyOS gaming showcase boasted an all-star lineup, with Tencent’s juggernauts “Honor of Kings” and “Light and Night” commanding prime real estate. The “Honor of Kings” booth was a hive of activity, with players eager test driving the optimized HarmonyOS version. Early reports indicate a 21% improvement in responsiveness thanks to the Ark Engine’s deep optimization. Meanwhile, “Light and Night” captivated attendees with its meticulously crafted, immersive romance-themed setting. Across the zone, other notable titles, including “NBA 2K Showdown,” “Jade Dynasty 2,” “Girls’ Frontline 2: Exilium,” and “Plants vs. Zombies 3,” representing a diverse range of genres – MOBA, otome, sports, Xianxia, and casual – underscored the vibrancy of the HarmonyOS gaming landscape.
Tap-to-Play, Offline Gaming, and Car Console Battles: HarmonyOS Redefines Game Interaction
“Car headlights can play games?” “Offline, multiplayer card games?” Inside the all-scenario experience zone, attendees were actively exploring the innovative gameplay mechanics powered by HarmonyOS. The AITO M9, equipped with a HarmonyOS cockpit, made a splash in the exhibit area, transforming the car into a “mobile gaming hub” with immersive in-car entertainment and interactive exterior lighting via “Best Eleven.” Additionally, the new Xinghe (Galaxy) starlight touch screen controller for smart displays addressed the common issues with hand-eye coordination in large-screen gaming, significantly improving operational smoothness.
The phrase “Tap-to-Play” was ubiquitous across the zone. In “Overcooked Kitchen” (暴吵萌厨), players simply tap two HarmonyOS 5-powered phones together to instantly team up.
In “NBA 2K Showdown,” the “Tap-to-Play” functionality morphed into a high-speed file transfer tool. A 1GB game resource pack could be shared with nearby friends in just 10 seconds. “Guan Dan” (多乐掼蛋) and “Ludo Party” (飞行棋大作战), among other “Offline Mini-Games,” allowed for seamless local multiplayer even without an internet connection. Moreover, “Sanguosha” (三国杀) integrated voice controls for hands-free gameplay. Spanning across phones, smart displays, watches, computers, and cars, the ecosystem left players impressed, exclaiming, “I couldn’t imagine it was like this!”
3-Second Game Starts, AI as a Teammate! Performance and Intelligence Break Boundaries
In the trial zone, the “speed” and “intelligence” of HarmonyOS gaming capabilities were instantly noticeable. “NBA 2K Showdown” gamers found the game launch time reduced to approximately 3 seconds. Background resource package downloads are also offered, utilizing the system’s idle time to download silently in advance.
The Celia Game Assistant provided intelligent features. It intelligently blocked incoming calls and messages to prevent interruptions. Also, AI-powered Q&A interface responded in seconds to queries, and provided system-level entry points such as the negative one screen and Celia Suggestions to receive updates.
Throughout ChinaJoy, “Honor of Kings,” “Light and Night,” “Girls’ Frontline 2: Exilium,” and “Jade Dynasty 2” are slated to host exhibitions and interactive events at the center stage of the exhibition. The door to a new HarmonyOS gaming world has opened!
