Reignite Hope in Honkai Star Rail Version 3.1 ‘Light Slips the Gate, Shadow Greets the Throne’

Honkai: Star Rail's Version 3.1, "Light Slips the Gate, Shadow Greets the Throne," launches February 26th, escalating the Flame-Chase Journey with new mysteries and uncharted territories.

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, to rescue survivors and unravel the catastrophe's origins. 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), the Holy Maiden of Janusopolis, is a 5-star Quantum character following the Path of Harmony, who received a prophecy from Kephale about Deliverance.

Mydei, the crown prince of Castrum Kremnos, is a fierce 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.

The Divergent Universe event returns with a research focus on Amphoreus and a new Day/Night battle system. Combat changes based on the time of day, triggering different buffs and effects.

The "Awooo Firm" event casts players as managers assisting Okhema's chimera squad.
