TiMi needed reliable, low-latency voice communication and richer in-game assistance so Honor of Kings players on diverse networks and devices could coordinate matches, interact socially, and receive real-time gameplay guidance without degrading the competitive experience.
Reported impact
TiMi turned voice chat into an AI-enabled gameplay channel that improved immersion, made team communication more expressive and inclusive, and helped new players perform better, with AI-assisted play contributing to a 30%+ increase in player retention and activity.
For Honor of Kings, TiMi Studio Group built an AI-driven voice stack on Tencent Games GVoice so voice becomes part of gameplay rather than a side utility. GVoice supplies the real-time voice transport across regions and device types, while the service layer combines Team Voice, Multi-room System, Voice Message, and Speech-to-text capabilities with newer AI functions. In AI Commander Mode, players speak through standard voice chat, AI Teammates interpret commands and execute in-game actions, and the Intelligent Gameplay Companion analyzes live games and statistics to surface tactical tips during play. Magic Voice adds seven real-time voice effects for more expressive communication, and Tencent's global node network keeps latency and stability consistent at massive scale. The resulting architecture ties voice capture, recognition, AI decision support, and response delivery directly into live 5v5 match flow.
Players speak through GVoice during live matches; speech-to-text and AI logic interpret commands, AI Teammates execute supported actions in AI Commander Mode, the Intelligent Gameplay Companion analyzes live game data to return guidance, and Magic Voice can transform outgoing voice effects before audio and gameplay responses reach the team.
AI assisted gameplay dramatically lowers the learning curve for new players by providing real time guidance and execution support, contributing to a 30%+ increase in player retention and activity.
GVoice provides a stable, high-quality voice chat interaction service.
Honor of Kings redefined in game communication by building a AI-driven voice ecosystem that seamlessly integrates gameplay coordination, AI companionship and social interaction.
In AI Commander Mode, players step into the role of a commander through AI Teammates and Intelligent Gameplay Companion features, using standard voice chat to give precise commands to AI teammates.
The system also analyzes live games and statistics to deliver actionable tips and insights on the fly, better enabling players to support team coordination and perfectly complementing the teamwork required in high-intensity 5v5 matches.
With Magic Voice, Honor of Kings introduced 7 real time voice effects, allowing players to instantaneously switch sound profiles, making open mic communication more inclusive, relaxed and socially engaging for teams.
