Honor of Kings Elite Pass vs Deluxe Pass: Malaysia Verdict 2026
Published: 2026-09-22
Honor Pass Elite at 388 Tokens returns roughly 2,000 Tokens plus a Legendary skin across a 90-day Honor of Kings season, and that is the shortest verdict any Malaysian player really needs to hear. If you log in for even three weeks of dailies, the Elite tier pays itself back and then some. Deluxe at 988 Tokens is a different question. This page answers it in ringgit rather than in USD.
Buy Tokens for the pass at REDX Game. Delivery is 1 to 3 minutes. Pricing sits in MYR only, and DuitNow QR, TNG eWallet, Boost, and FPX all clear against the same ringgit sticker without an App Store surcharge.
The MYR-per-Token math nobody prints on the store
Level Infinite lists the 80-Token pack at USD 0.99 with a one-time 100% bonus on first purchase, meaning your very first top-up doubles the pack size while every subsequent one drops back to the standard rate. At RM 4.40 to the US dollar, that is RM 4.35 for 160 Tokens the first time and RM 4.35 for 80 Tokens on every top-up after, which puts the regular rate at RM 0.054 per Token. Weekly Card Plus at USD 2.39 clears 380 Tokens over seven days. Do the same math and RM 10.50 for 380 Tokens lands at RM 0.028 per Token, the best sustained rate in the game.
Elite Pass is where the number breaks. You pay 388 Tokens to activate the premium track, which costs around RM 21 at Level Infinite's ladder, and the season's premium track hands back 2,000 to 3,000 Tokens depending on play time plus a Legendary skin whose store price is 1,688 to 2,888 Tokens on its own. Even at the floor, you pay RM 21 to receive roughly RM 100 of Tokens and a skin. That is why the KL and Petaling Jaya HKC regulars buy Elite before anything else.
Elite, Deluxe, and buying Tokens raw
The table below assumes you clear every daily and weekly Honor Pass challenge across a 90-day season. It is the reasonable-grinder case, not a whale case. Token prices convert at the storefront rate REDX Game sells against, rounded to the nearest ringgit.

Honor Pass Deluxe988 Tokens (RM 54)3,000+ Tokens + Legendary + Epic + 50% Pass EXP~RM 0.018 effective
Deluxe adds a second cosmetic and a 50% Pass EXP boost. That boost is the reason to consider it if you barely play, because reaching Level 100 without the multiplier takes real commitment across the full 90-day window. Daily players hit Level 100 comfortably on Elite alone. For them, Deluxe becomes a RM 33 skin premium in disguise rather than a real value add. Honest verdict: skip Deluxe unless the season's second cosmetic is one you would have paid raw store price for anyway.
Why the Honor Pass resets so often and what that costs you
Wikipedia notes that Honor of Kings' Match seasons run "approximately 3–4 months" apart. The Honor Pass tracks that cadence tightly. Miss a season and the Legendary skin disappears from the Pass shop for good, replaced by whatever cosmetic Level Infinite pins to the next Match season three months later. Current 2026 Global season closes when the next Match season opens, and Level Infinite has kept to that quarterly pattern all year, which sets the practical budget for a Malaysian player: one pass every quarter, not every month, and only when you can activate inside the first two weeks so the 90-day clock does not eat your value.
Ninety days also means the daily and weekly challenges are the actual product. Skip a week and 200 to 300 Tokens of return quietly vanish from your ledger. Boleh tahan for someone who plays every night. Punishing if you travel from Johor Bahru to Kuching for a fortnight and forget your phone. Silent accounts flip the Elite math against you. Budget honestly against your own schedule.
Step-by-step: buying HoK Tokens in ringgit
- Open Honor of Kings and grab your Honor ID from your profile page (top-left avatar), then screenshot or copy the number for the next step.
- Head to REDX Game's Honor of Kings top-up, paste the ID, and pick the Token pack that clears your activation cost with a small buffer for the next weekly refresh.
- Pay via DuitNow QR, TNG eWallet, Boost, or FPX, where DuitNow settles fastest for Maybank and CIMB in most Ipoh and Shah Alam branches, and TNG eWallet typically clears second.
- Wait 1 to 3 minutes. Tokens arrive in your HoK inventory automatically, tied to the Honor ID you pasted rather than the phone you paid from.
- In the game, tap the Honor Pass banner and pay 388 Tokens for Elite or 988 Tokens for Deluxe. Rewards apply retroactively for every level you have already cleared this season.
MYR-only ladder is the whole point. RM 21 buys 388 Tokens cleanly, with no forex spread and no rounded top-up to close a gap. App Store pricing on Malaysian cards adds Apple's cut on top of a USD-quoted item, which lands around RM 4.90 for the same 80 Tokens against RM 4.35 at the storefront REDX Game mirrors. Small per pack, but real once you are activating a pass every 90 days.
Local tips from Malaysian Honor of Kings players
HKC Malaysia community leans heavier in Shah Alam and Ipoh than the MLBB scene does. Regional meetups pull real crowds. The Honor of Kings booth at Comic Fiesta 2024 in KL cleared its rotational chair on both days of the show floor. If you queue Ranked with a TODAK-flavour Discord in the Malaysian HoK ecosystem, activate Elite early, because the season Legendary skin becomes a marker of who is committed to showing up through the full 90 days. Murah giler compared to buying that same skin raw at 1,688 to 2,888 Tokens through the store.
Second local note: TNG eWallet rotates weekend promotions on a quiet schedule. Hold your top-up for Saturday when a 3 to 5 percent cashback lands. Stack it with a MYR-ladder order at REDX Game, and the Elite activation lands around RM 20 net. Petaling Jaya cardholders on CIMB or Bank Rakyat combos see the biggest cashback stack, particularly around month-end payroll cycles.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Elite Pass worth 388 Tokens if I only play casually?
Yes, provided you clear roughly five weekly challenges across the 90-day season, which is enough to hit the 2,000-Token floor plus the Legendary skin and clear the RM 21 activation cost several times over. Skip it if your account will go silent for a month or longer. The pass return curves late.
Do Deluxe Pass buyers actually reach Level 100 faster?
The 50% Pass EXP boost is real and measurable. Daily grinders who log 30 minutes hit Level 100 before Level Infinite's cutoff without it. Players who dip in twice a week gain the most from Deluxe's boost, and they are the segment who should be paying the RM 33 premium for real Level 100 confidence.
Can I pay for the Honor Pass with DuitNow directly?
Not inside Honor of Kings. The game only accepts Tokens for the pass activation itself. So the ringgit path is: buy Tokens from REDX Game with DuitNow QR, wait 1 to 3 minutes for the Tokens to land, then activate the pass in-game with the 388-Token or 988-Token purchase.
Is the Malaysian App Store cheaper for Honor of Kings top-ups?
No. Apple's Malaysian pricing lands around RM 4.90 for 80 Tokens against RM 4.35 at the storefront REDX Game sells in MYR. Your card issuer typically tacks on a currency conversion for USD-priced App Store items, which the ringgit ladder avoids entirely.
What happens to my Pass progress if the season ends before Level 100?
Legendary skin stays locked and no refund is issued. Level Infinite resets pass tracks with each Match season, which per Wikipedia rotates every 3 to 4 months. Time your Elite activation in the first fortnight of a new season to preserve the full 90-day earning window rather than a partial one.
Elite or Deluxe if I already own a lot of Legendary skins?
Stick with Elite. The Legendary skin is the ceiling on Pass cosmetic value. Deluxe's second reward is an Epic that many collectors already own variants of, which makes it a mid-tier duplicate at a RM 33 premium. Better to spend that gap on the store's rotating Legendary of your favourite hero than on a Pass filler.
