The ultimate challenge for top players is playing Kingdom vs Kingdom mode. We will teach you how to play KVK in Rise of Kingdoms without being a laughingstock.
In Rise of Kingdoms, you can battle it out with players from across the world. But probably the largest scale, and most impressive, of these battles take place when we get to the Kingdom vs Kingdom stage. But how do you succeed in KvK? And what even is it? Well, let’s find out…
What is Kingdom v Kingdom?
In the simplest possible terms, Kingdom vs Kingdom is a new challenge where you fight to progress from the corner of the map into the middle in order to conquer an area called the Lost Ziggurat. It unfolds over months, separated into seasons, with each alliance and kingdom fighting to be crowned the strongest. You’ll need access to a level 16+ city hall, and once you have this, you’ll be able to teleport to the Lost Kingdom…
The Lost Kingdom
Before you get to the Kingdom vs Kingdom stage, you’ll need to complete the event called Eve of Crusade which enables access to the Lost Kingdom as well as unlocking Kingdom vs Kingdom. Within the Lost Kingdom itself, you join an alliance that pushes towards the centre of the Lost Kingdom in order to take the Lost Ziggurat.
Seasons
KvK is split up into multiple seasons, with gaps in between. This means that you’ll get time to complete other events and farm back on the main map before returning to the Lost Kingdom. It also means you can actually enjoy some of the other rewards that you’ve acquired. These seasons are KvK 1, 2, and 3, the Season of Conquest.
Why Kingdom vs Kingdom?
Aside from the bragging rights, why would you want to play Kingdom vs Kingdom? Well, for one, it’s an immensely fun game mode and one that shows off just how Rise of Kingdoms excels in playing like a proper 4x strategy game on mobile. For two, there are other exclusive rewards, including two commanders: Charlemagne and Wu Zetian.
With all that in mind, let’s get into some tips for first-timers playing Kingdom vs Kingdom.
