HoN 2.0 also introduces an entirely new game play mode - Casual Mode - that lowers the barrier to entry for new and casual gamers.

 Casual Mode
While most HoN fans relish the "hard core" nature of the game, it can be a barrier to entry for new players and a detriment to those who prefer to play in a more relaxed, casual atmosphere. This entirely new mode of play will provide new players and casual gamers with a more "fun," less punishing way to learn and play HoN.

Check out the Casual Mode Spotlight Video.

 Cosmetic Item Shop
With goblin coin currency, which can be earned or bought, players can purchase in-game brag-worthy cosmetic upgrades. The micro-transaction based store lets players customize their experience without affecting game play or allowing the purchases to change the level of competition.

 Automated Match Making
This innovative and intuitive feature increases the efficiency of team creation by automatically gathering player statistics and formulating teams, resulting in more fair matches. It minimizes wait time and makes it easier for players to play together on a level playing field.

 New 3v3 Map - Grimms Crossing
A new action-packed and exciting map that includes a two-way teleporter in the middle area, allowing for more innovative fighting strategies and tactics. Grimm's Crossing is a battlefield for the bloodthirsty. The terrain favors the cunning and aggressive, as hidden paths within the trees can provide a quick way to rout unsuspecting enemies. There is precious little territory to be contested over; battles are won and lost at frantic paces, often beginning and ending unexpectedly. Do not be fooled by its small size- Grimm's Crossing has its share of treasures and secrets.

 Map Editor & DREAM Maps
With the exact same tool that we used to make HoN, users can now create and edit maps for enhanced single-player experiences. Users who are inspired to create multi-player maps can submit their map designs to the HoN DREAM website for potential inclusion in HoN. Also, in conjunction with scripting manipulation, players can create their own custom modes.
