Get ready for an exhilarating journey as Honkai: Star Rail unveils its Version 3.1 update, titled 'Light Slips the Gate, Shadow Greets the Throne,' set to launch on February 26th. The Flame-Chase Journey escalates, propelling Trailblazers into unexplored territories and unraveling new mysteries.

Honkai Star Rail Version 3.1 Introduces New Characters

Version 3.1 brings excitement with the introduction of two new 5-star characters: Tribbie and Mydei. Fans of the storyline will recall securing Nikador’s Coreflame, and now, the next chapter unfolds in the Grove of Epiphany, a brand-new map. As part of the main Trailblaze Mission, players will be on a mission to rescue survivors and uncover the truth behind the catastrophe, eventually embarking on a quest to reclaim Cerces’ Coreflame to restore hope to Okhema.

Delve deeper into the Abyss of Fate, formerly known as Janusopolis, now unveiled in its Day State. This setting uncovers the forgotten history of the Era Chrysea and offers a deeper look into Tribbie’s past. Tribbie, also known as Tribios, is a demigod and a 5-star Quantum character following the Path of Harmony. As the Holy Maiden of Janusopolis, she received a prophecy from Kephale about Deliverance and took it upon herself to spread the word far and wide.

Mydei, the crown prince of Castrum Kremnos, is a warrior with the ferocity of a lion. A 5-star Imaginary character following the Path of Destruction, he burns through his own HP to charge up, then enters an enhanced form where he automatically slams enemies during his turns.

Get a sneak peek at these two fascinating characters right here.

Returning Characters in Honkai Star Rail Version 3.1

Version 3.1 also brings back some beloved characters for another round. The limited 5-star characters Yunli and Huohuo are returning. Yunli will be available in the first half of the warp event, while Huohuo will make her appearance in the second half.

Additionally, The Awooo Firm event allows players to take on a managerial role, helping the chimera squad in Okhema. Prepare for these engaging updates by grabbing Honkai: Star Rail from the Google Play Store, ready for the update on February 26th.
