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

As Honkai: Star Rail celebrates its second year of success from developer MiHoYo, fans have much to look forward to with the upcoming version 3.2 update and second-anniversary celebrations. The new update, set to launch on April 9th, promises to bring fresh content and exciting additions to the game.

Version 3.2 will introduce the next chapter in the Flame-Chase Journey, where players will dive deeper into the political intrigue involving the Trailblazers and Chrysos Heirs. This update is not just about the story; it also features the debut of two new five-star characters: Castorice (Remembrance) and Anaxa (Erudition). These characters come with unique abilities, including using their own HP to deal damage and inflicting massive debuffs on enemies, adding new strategic layers to the gameplay.

But what many players are eagerly awaiting are the second-anniversary rewards. Starting on April 9th, alongside the launch of version 3.2, the Festive Gifts anniversary event will kick off. This event offers players the chance to earn 20 free pulls through daily check-ins. On April 26th, players will receive a commemorative in-game card from a companion and 1600 Stellar Jade. Additionally, players will have the opportunity to choose a free five-star character between Ruan Mei and Luocha, making the anniversary celebrations truly rewarding.
