Despite launching just under eight years ago on mobile, Lords Mobile has just held its most exciting event.
Thanks to a partnership with Armored Combat Worldwide, Lords Mobile came to life over the weekend of November 10-12th, seeing 300 real-life combatants battle with genuine armour and weapons in a real life guild war.
Other than the 150 vs 150 match there were a number of 5 vs 5 battles, with flags given to the winning guilds. Those flags were then paraded by the victors in a final ceremony. There were even cosplayers dressed as various heroes on the day of the event, with the location dedicated with Lords Mobile banners everywhere you looked.
Armored Combat embodies values like courage, perseverance, and fighting spirit – with the game also looking for players that possess similar qualities. Just looking at the images in this article you can see how much courage, perseverance, and fighting spirit was on show.
Lords Mobile x Armored Combat Worldwide kicked off with a bunch of in-game events to build momentum for these epic clashes too.
You could sign in daily to earn Combat Coins, which you then spent in the Combat Shop for exclusive event rewards like themed Avatars, Emotes, and Artifacts. Then there was the collab-exclusive Monster, Armored Soul, which you could tackle with your guild for tonnes of rewards.
The rest of the collaboration was split into two major events, including Guild Fest. This saw six guilds compete against each other between September 11 – 17, with the two winners getting the two ACW teams named after them.
This saw the names and logos of the guilds appear on the actual armour the teams worn during the physical event. The two guilds also won five tickets each, so members of the winning team could go to the live ACW tournament.
The second was Armored Clash, which also took place in September, and saw a bunch of in-game guilds competing in three different rounds of events. The top four ranked guilds at the end of Armored Clash lent their names to the ACW semi-final teams, and won five tickets per guild to watch the event live.
Tickets were also granted to lucky players on social media, which resulted in a ton of Lords Mobile players going to the live event in person. Tickets included accommodation, an exclusive merchandise gift pack, and, of course, entry to the live show. And it really was just Lords Mobile brought to life, as 300 trained combatants battled each other with real weapons and armour emblazoned with Lords Mobile guild logos. It was a site to behold for those lucky enough to make the trip. Just look at those excited faces below.
ACW is perhaps the perfect collaboration for Lords Mobile, which prides itself on its fascination with mediaeval battling. Both share

November of 2013 was a big one for games, with two major consoles launching opposite one another after years of discourse about the surely imminent demise of the console market.
Squid Game: The Challenge, the new reality show spinoff of Netflix’s popular post-apocalyptic series, requires way too much buy-in. Which is surprising: Squid Gamewas watched by millions of people, becoming the most popular show on Netflix ever. And yet, The Challenge takes it for granted that viewers and contestants alike are the biggest Squid Game fans in the world, but never really succeeds in making a case for itself beyond the IP it’s basically an extended commercial for.
With Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League launching a handful of months from now, Rocksteady Studios and WB Games have resumed their rollout of new details on the open world shooter, and in the wake of its most recent gameplay deep dive, Warner Bros. has now announced an imminent closed alpha tech test for the title.
Capcom have announced a showcase for November 28th to delve into Dragon’s Dogma 2, a sequel to their oddball fantasy RPG from 2012. That’s exciting news to me, since the original’s small-person-climbs-big-monster combat was pure fun to simply watch. Doing the actual monster-stabbing was even better, though, and thankfully the sequel’s release date doesn’t seem that far off if a videogame ratings board is to be believed (accidental ratings boards leaks being the way many release dates are revealed these days).
