Honor of Kings Limited-Time Token Guide: How to Get 1,688 Tokens and What to Buy First
The definitive HoK July 2026 Token Guide: a complete breakdown of all 2,688 free tokens and how to get them (1,000 from login rewards + 1,688 from 8 weeks of missions), FMVP Legend skin exchange priority rankings, token discount card usage strategies, and every free skin event available during the same period to help you maximize your rewards.
Honor of Kings' 2026 Summer Festival is the most generous free-reward event in the global version so far this year. For the first time in the game's history, multiple FMVP Legendary skins — previously obtainable only through expensive draws, costing up to 12,000 tokens — have been added to the limited-time token exchange shop, and can be obtained entirely for free by participating in the event. The math is simple: after completing the Summer Festival login rewards and the 8-week mission cycle, players can earn a total of 2,688 limited-time tokens without spending any money — enough to directly redeem any one 1,688-token Legendary skin.
This event structure is compiled from SportsDunia's HoK July 2026 event coverage, Level Infinite's official event calendar, and CN server data summaries. It is designed to reward consistent weekly participation rather than long grinding sessions. The weekly sign-in event alone (June 29 to August 23) provides 1,688 tokens , requiring only simple weekly logins with no matches needed. Add the 1,000-token Peak Day login reward available during the open period, and the total free tokens can reach 2,688 — and that still does not include extra token sources from collaboration events, KPL Summer Split viewing rewards, and the treasure-digging minigame.
This guide provides a complete roadmap: how to get every available limited-time token from all ongoing events in July 2026; a ranked priority list of which FMVP Legendary skins to redeem first; how to use the 1,688-token discount card for additional purchases; and a roundup of all concurrent free skin events so you do not miss any rewards. Token voucher claim windows are time-limited — unclaimed rewards expire at their respective deadlines, with no grace period.
How to get limited-time tokens: complete acquisition path
The limited-time token system in July 2026 is built around two overlapping acquisition routes and several supplementary sources. Here is the full breakdown:
Main acquisition route: login rewards (1,000 tokens)
The Peak Day login reward is the easiest 1,000 tokens you can get in Honor of Kings — no matches, no missions, just log in and claim it. The broader Peak Day event also grants up to 4,000 additional tokens through collaboration events, red packet drops, and stacked login rewards. June 27–28 is the critical two-day window — three separate reward tracks converge during these two days.
Main acquisition route: Summer Festival weekly missions (1,688 tokens)
The weekly sign-in and Summer Festival mission cycle runs from June 29 to August 23 (about 8 weeks), and provides a total of 1,688 tokens , from three mission categories:
Source: SportsDunia HoK July 2026 events; CN server Summer Festival data summary
Login + missions total: 1,000 (login) + 1,688 (8-week cycle) = 2,688 tokens. That is enough to buy any one 1,688-token Legendary skin from the limited-time exchange shop. Fully F2P.
Supplementary token sources
In addition to the main routes, you can also get extra limited-time tokens through the following methods:
Peak Day collaboration events (June 27 – July 26): Collaboration reward exchanges will grant token vouchers. These are not limited to a single day, but they do require interacting with the collaboration event interface.
KPL Summer Split viewing rewards: Log in to the in-game Esports Center daily; a small token voucher chest unlocks after 7 cumulative sign-in days.
1 RMB Pass free track: Even without buying the premium upgrade pack, the free track of the 1 RMB Pass gives a small amount of tokens and skin fragments.
Offline collaboration events: Partner restaurant chains (Pizza Hut and Wallace in China) will run QR-code scan events with a chance to win 888 Q Coins (equivalent to 8,880 tokens on the CN server). Rewards may differ in the global version — check your local in-game event center.
Consignment Shop daily sign-in (June 17–28): Daily sign-ins in the Consignment Shop during this period grant small token packs and event currency.
Key deadline notes: Token vouchers issued by different events have different expiration dates. The Peak Day free trial window (free heroes and skins) ends on July 3. The collaboration event token voucher window runs until July 26. Weekly sign-ins and Summer Festival missions continue until August 23. Claimed but unused token vouchers usually expire when the event ends — claim and use them before each event's deadline.

What to buy first: limited-time token redemption priority ranking
The 2026 Summer Festival limited-time token exchange shop is the highest-value version in the game's history because it includes FMVP Legendary skins that were previously obtainable only through draws. These skins usually require 12,000+ tokens through the Wish draw system. Their addition to the free exchange shop creates a limited-time opportunity that may never return.
S-tier priority: FMVP Legendary skins (first time available for free)

A-tier redemptions: other Legendary options
If you have already redeemed one S-tier FMVP skin and obtained extra tokens from supplementary sources:
Dun Epic skin — available through the Epic & Legend Skin Event (July 3–31). While not an FMVP-level pick, it is a solid option for tank/support players.
Erin Legendary skin — newly added content. Also obtainable through the same Epic & Legend event. Worth considering for Erin mains.
1,688-token discount card strategy
The Summer Treasure Dig event yields Treasure Coins , which can be used to redeem a 1,688 universal token discount card. This card applies to all direct-sale Legendary skins and effectively halves the cost of buying a second Legendary skin. If you are a light spender planning to buy tokens:
Prioritize exchanging Treasure Coins for the 1,688 discount card
Use the card on a direct-sale Legendary skin (base price 1,688 tokens → effectively 0 tokens after the full discount)
Use your accumulated free tokens to redeem an FMVP skin available only during this window
This strategy lets you get two Legendary skins — one FMVP redeemed with free tokens, and one direct-sale skin obtained through the discount card — with almost no extra spending, or even completely free.
All concurrent free skin events: do not miss these
July 2026 is packed with free skin events running alongside the limited-time token plan. Here is the full schedule:
Free skin event calendar

Important note: The Alessio Cosmic Cravings skin event (July 2–15) has the shortest window — prioritize it first. The Honor Pass free track (July 10 – September 16) lasts the longest — there is no need to rush, but progress builds through regular play, so do not leave it until the final week.
Optimized token farming schedule: week-by-week plan
To maximize token gains without burning yourself out on daily grinding, follow this weekly routine throughout the full 8-week event period:
Weekly routine
Key dates to mark
July 3: Peak Day free trial window ends (free hero/skin trials). Peak Day-issued token vouchers last longer — check their individual expiration times.
July 15: Alessio Cosmic Cravings event ends. Finish the minigame before this date.
July 26: The collaboration event token voucher window closes. Claim all pending collaboration rewards.
July 31: The Zhang Fei skin event and the Epic/Legend event end.
August 23: The Summer Festival weekly sign-in and mission cycle ends. Final deadline for all 1,688 weekly tokens. Unclaimed rewards will expire.
Be ready for every event window: Topuplist keeps your Honor of Kings account topped up so you do not miss any limited-time redemptions. Visit the Honor of Kings top-up page to recharge your account and complete your Summer Festival collection with confidence.
Token spending strategy: three budget profiles
Profile 1: F2P player
Total free tokens available: 2,688 (1,000 login + 1,688 missions) Strategy: Precisely redeem one S-tier FMVP Legendary skin. Recommended pick: Xi Shi — You Long Qing Ying. This is the highest-value choice because it was previously obtainable only through 12,000+ token draws, and after the event ends it is unlikely to return via direct sale. If you do not play mid lane, choose Ma Chao (Clash Lane) or Jing (Jungle) based on your main role. Tokens remaining after redeeming one Legendary: About 1,000 tokens — usable on smaller items in the exchange shop (skin fragments, hero fragments, event currency).
Profile 2: light spender (1–2 purchases)
Strategy: Use the 1,688-token discount card from Treasure Dig to secure a second Legendary skin. Process:
Use free tokens to redeem your preferred FMVP skin (for example, Xi Shi — You Long Qing Ying)
Exchange Treasure Coins for the 1,688 discount card
Use the discount card on a direct-sale Legendary skin (any 1,688-token Legendary becomes free at full card value)
Total: two Legendary skins — one FMVP and one direct-sale — with only the cost of obtaining the discount card (for engaged event players, this can be obtained for free through Treasure Dig)
Profile 3: heavy collector
Strategy: Combine all free tokens, discount cards, and purchased tokens to maximize your Summer Festival haul. Process:
Claim all 2,688 free tokens
Redeem one FMVP Legendary skin (free)
Use the 1,688 discount card to get a second Legendary (free with the card)
Buy extra tokens to redeem the remaining FMVP or direct-sale Legendary skins
Skin priority after buying tokens: Gong Sun Li — Yun Luo Qian Shan (Legendary, general-use marksman) > Jing — Chi Yang Shen Guang (if not yet redeemed) > any other skin you want

FAQ
How do I get 1,688 limited-time tokens in Honor of Kings?
The Summer Festival weekly sign-in event (June 29 – August 23) provides 1,688 tokens , earned through weekly logins over 8 weeks — no matches required. In addition, daily match missions, the Treasure Dig minigame, and weekly activity rewards also count toward this total. Add the 1,000-token Peak Day login reward, and the maximum total of free tokens is 2,688.
Which skins are best to redeem with limited-time tokens?
The top priority is FMVP Legendary skins , which have entered the exchange shop for the first time: Xi Shi — You Long Qing Ying (top priority — previously obtainable only through 12,000+ token draws), Ma Chao — Wu Shuang Fei Jiang (best Clash Lane skin), Jing — Chi Yang Shen Guang (best value for Jungle), and Gong Sun Li — Yun Luo Qian Shan (versatile marksman Legendary). These FMVP skins may not return to the free exchange shop after this event.
How long do limited-time tokens last?
Summer Festival limited-time tokens expire when the event period ends. The weekly sign-in and mission cycle ends on August 23, 2026. Unclaimed or unused tokens from Peak Day and collaboration events expire on their respective deadlines (July 3 for the free trial, July 26 for collaboration token vouchers). Claim and use your tokens before the event ends — there is no grace period.
Can I get a Legendary skin for free during this event?
Yes. After completing all Summer Festival missions and claiming the login rewards, you can accumulate 2,688 free tokens — enough to buy any one 1,688-token Legendary skin from the exchange shop without spending money. The Treasure Dig event also provides a 1,688-token discount card (obtained through Treasure Coins), which lets you get a second Legendary skin at almost no cost.
What other free skins are available in July 2026?
Five free skins are available alongside the token event: Alessio — Cosmic Cravings (July 2–15, via minigame), a chance to get Erin Legendary or Dun Epic (July 3–31, random event drop), Meng Ya — Nutcracker Rhapsody (July 10 – September 16, Honor Pass free track), Zhang Fei — new outfit (July 16–31, event missions), and Flowborn Outfit (July 23 – September 22, National Star event).
Can the Peak Day login reward still be claimed now?
The Peak Day free trial window (free heroes and skin trials) already ended on July 3, 2026 . However, token vouchers issued during Peak Day remain valid longer — collaboration event token vouchers last until July 26. Check the event center to see whether there are still unclaimed token vouchers from the Peak Day period.
What is the 1,688-token discount card, and how do I get it?
The 1,688 discount card can be obtained through the Summer Treasure Dig event by exchanging Treasure Coins (earned through daily Treasure Dig attempts and weekly activity chests). The card applies to all direct-sale Legendary skins and reduces the cost by 1,688 tokens — effectively making one Legendary skin free or heavily discounted.
Can I save limited-time tokens for future events?
No. The 2026 Summer Festival limited-time tokens can only be used in this event and will expire when the event ends on August 23, 2026 . They will not carry over to future events. Spend all your tokens before the deadline.
If I miss a week, will the weekly sign-in tokens be reissued or roll over later?
The weekly sign-in event runs on an 8-week cumulative basis. You do not need perfect attendance — but to reach the total token cap (1,688), you must complete all available weeks. Missing one week lowers your maximum obtainable total, because skipped weeks have no make-up mechanism.
