Honkai: Star Rail is set to launch its Version 3.2 update, titled 'Through the Petals in the Land of Repose,' on April 9th. This new chapter promises to deliver fresh lore, thrilling battles, and the introduction of new characters. As the game approaches its two-year anniversary, HoYoVerse is also preparing a series of special events and giveaways to celebrate this milestone.
What’s in Store in Honkai: Star Rail Version 3.2?
Version 3.2 introduces two new 5-star characters: Castorice (Remembrance) and Anaxa (Erudition). Castorice, a Chrysos Heir burdened by the Touch of Death, comes with a tragic backstory and formidable abilities. She is on a quest to find the lost Coreflame of Death, wielding the powerful Netherwing. Anaxa, on the other hand, brings a scholarly perspective to the team. As one of the Seven Sages of the Grove of Epiphany, his experiences have profoundly altered his view on reality. His Ultimate, Sublimation, can apply seven Weaknesses to every enemy simultaneously.
Returning characters are also featured in this update. In the first half of Honkai: Star Rail Version 3.2, players can look forward to reruns of Fugue, Jiaoqiu, and Acheron. Dr. Ratio, missed by some in his last appearance, will be available in the second half.
HoYoVerse has teased balance changes coming in Version 3.4 for characters such as Silver Wolf, Blade, Kafka, and Jingliu. While specifics are yet to be revealed, these adjustments are highly anticipated. Get a sneak peek at what Version 3.2 has to offer in the trailer below.
The Story This Time Is Heading to Styxia.
The narrative in Version 3.2 takes players to Styxia, a forgotten city submerged under the Sea of Souls. This haunting locale, strewn with dragon bones and haunted by spirits, sets the stage for uncovering the secrets of the Titans and the draconic catastrophe that devastated the city. Trailblazers will guide Castorice through this eerie environment, piecing together the mysteries that lie within.
To celebrate the game’s two-year anniversary, HoYoVerse is offering 20 free pulls just for logging in. On April 26th, the anniversary day, players will receive 1,600 Stellar Jades and a special in-game card from a companion. Additionally, players will have the opportunity to choose a free 5-star character between Ruan Mei and Luocha.
