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

As Honkai: Star Rail celebrates its second anniversary, developer MiHoYo is set to roll out version 3.2 on April 9th, bringing with it a host of exciting new content. This update is a testament to the game's enduring popularity and success over the past two years.

Version 3.2 introduces a captivating continuation of the Flame-Chase Journey, where players will dive deeper into the political intrigue involving the Trailblazers and Chrysos Heirs. Alongside this narrative expansion, the update will introduce two new five-star characters: Castorice (Remembrance) and Anaxa (Erudition). Castorice brings unique abilities that leverage their own HP to deal damage, while Anaxa excels in applying massive debuffs to enemies, adding new strategic layers to the gameplay.

But the excitement doesn't stop there. Honkai: Star Rail's second anniversary will be marked by the Festive Gifts event, starting on April 9th in tandem with the 3.2 update. Players can look forward to 20 free pulls through daily check-ins, and on April 26th, they'll receive a commemorative in-game card from a companion, along with 1600 Stellar Jade. As part of the celebrations, players will also have the opportunity to choose a free five-star character from either Ruan Mei or Luocha, adding significant value to the anniversary festivities.
