As we previously covered on August 29, Honor of Kings announced a delay on Guan Yu’s new skin due to “dangerous driving”, because he was riding a bike single-handedly and not wearing a helmet.

This caused considerable protest from parents, since a large number of the players in this game were teenagers, and they feared that the new skin would advocate a false example.

Hence, the release of Guan Yu’s new skin was postponed. 

Now that the skin has been rescheduled for sale, we can find out that some details have been altered. Now Guan Yu has a bike helmet and is riding with both hands.
