Mobile Legends: Bang Bang initially had 10 selectable characters, referred to as “Heroes”, upon its release in 2016. It later grew to 70 by November 2018, and as of December 2021, 112 heroes are in the live server. The fictional setting where majority of the heroes reside and stories take place is called the Land of Dawn. It is a world divided in 7 distinct regions where each location comprises its own historical events, fables, battles, factions, and heroes of different races; some of which are related and/or have intertwining lives. Moonton uses this setting to introduce new heroes and create series of stories.
