Honkai: Star Rail's Next Chapter and Anniversary Rewards Coming Next Month

Honkai: Star Rail, one of developer MiHoYo's most successful releases, is celebrating its second anniversary with exciting updates and rewards. As the game sails into its second year, fans can look forward to the highly anticipated version 3.2 update, set to launch on April 9th, bringing a wealth of new content.

Version 3.2 introduces new story elements that delve deeper into the Flame-Chase Journey, with the Trailblazers and Chrysos Heirs navigating complex political intrigue. Alongside the story, two new five-star characters will make their debut: Castorice of the Remembrance path and Anaxa of the Erudition path. Both characters come with unique abilities, from utilizing their own HP to deal damage to inflicting massive debuffs on enemies, adding fresh strategic options to your gameplay.

But the highlight for many players will be the second-anniversary celebrations. Starting on April 9th, coinciding with the launch of version 3.2, the Festive Gifts anniversary event will kick off. By simply logging in daily, players can earn 20 free pulls, making it easier to add new characters to your roster. On April 26th, the festivities continue with players receiving a commemorative in-game card from a companion, along with 1600 Stellar Jade. As a cherry on top, you'll have the opportunity to choose a free five-star character between Ruan Mei and Luocha.
