New Update Unveils

Honkai: Star Rail Version 3.1, "Light Slips the Gate, Shadow Greets the Throne," launches February 26th, escalating the Flame-Chase storyline into uncharted territory.

New 5-Star Characters in Honkai Star Rail Version 3.1

Version 3.1 introduces two new 5-star characters: Tribbie and Mydei. Following the acquisition of Nikador's Coreflame, players explore the Grove of Epiphany, a new map, rescuing survivors and unraveling a catastrophic event. The quest continues with the recovery of Cerces' Coreflame to restore hope to Okhema.

The update delves into the Abyss of Fate (formerly Janusopolis), now revealed in its Day State. This exploration unearths the long-lost history of the Era Chrysea and Tribbie's past. Tribbie (Tribios), a Quantum-type 5-star character following the Path of Harmony, is the Holy Maiden of Janusopolis, entrusted with a prophecy of Deliverance.

Mydei, the crown prince of Castrum Kremnos, is a 5-star Imaginary character following the Path of Destruction. His combat style involves sacrificing HP to power up, entering an enhanced state with automatic enemy attacks during his turns.

A glimpse of these characters can be seen here:
