Hi everyone, I'm Game Xiaodi.

The quadrennial World Cup has started once more. As the largest global football tournament, it draws significant interest. In the recent test server, Honor of Kings introduced a new 3v3 football-style mode called "Green Field Showdown." In fact, Honor of Kings has collaborated with World Cup players to release a limited skin—裴擒虎's Messi skin. That's why many players are wondering if this skin has a chance to return during this World Cup.

裴擒虎 Messi skin

Let me introduce this skin. The裴擒虎 Messi skin was released in 2018, during the previous World Cup. It is of epic limited quality and was officially licensed by Messi himself.

At the time, this skin was very popular among players. First, its design closely resembled Messi himself, with pleasing color coordination and excellent integration with the裴擒虎 hero. Second, as an epic skin, it had a specially modified action skeleton that gave the feel of kicking a ball, perfectly matching the Messi and football theme. Remember, other裴擒虎 skins at the time had the same pose as the original—one hand forward and the other raised—while this Messi skin was completely different. This made the skin feel very smooth to use. Back then, almost everyone who played裴擒虎 used the Messi skin, especially since裴擒虎 didn't have many high-quality skins at the time.

Is there any hope for a return?

The officials haven't explicitly stated anything, but let me share some past information, and you can judge for yourself. This skin has been re-released once before, during the May 5th Friends Day the year after its launch. The announcement at that time specifically mentioned: "According to the contract, Honor of Kings has the right to re-release the Messi skin once. However, after this re-release, it will no longer be included in the anniversary limited skin voting pool, and whether it can be re-released again depends on future authorization from the copyright holder. Honor of Kings is actively communicating with the copyright holder." At that time, the officials also asked everyone to keep an eye on future announcements, but seven or eight years have passed with no further mention, and the outcome is probably self-evident.

During the last World Cup, Messi's Argentina team won the championship, but unfortunately, the in-game Messi skin did not return—in fact, there was no sign of it at all. This World Cup has just begun, and the final result is uncertain. It's hard to say whether this skin will make a comeback.

Of course,裴擒虎 now has many skins to choose from, so there's no shortage. The most highly praised skin currently is the FMVP skin "Xiangyun Hengtong" from Xiaopang, which offers great feel and effects, playing very smoothly. For casual players, the free Li Xiaolong limited skin is also an excellent choice—it's well-made and authentic, perhaps even more nostalgic for many.

As for the Messi skin, although it was truly classic in the early days, it feels somewhat outdated in today's Honor of Kings. In fact, there are many skins in Honor of Kings that are difficult to re-release, such as Wang Zhaojun's "Eternal Sailor Moon," Di Renjie's "Field Guard," and Athena's "Wonder Woman," which has been confirmed to never return. Skins are constantly being updated, and even better ones will come along.

That's all for now. If you enjoyed it, feel free to give a like to show support. If you have anything to say, ask, or want to see, leave a comment below—I'll read them all!~
