About This Game

Mobile Legends: Bang Bang is a mobile 5v5 MOBA where players pick heroes, work with teammates to fight across three lanes, and destroy the enemy base in short real‑time matches (typically 10–30 minutes). It is online multiplayer only, emphasizes team strategy and quick matches, and is monetized through cosmetic skins, battle passes and in‑game currency purchases. Parents should note the game includes live voice/text chat, online matchmaking with strangers, and purchasable items.
