Excitement is building as *Honkai: Star Rail* prepares for a major update with the arrival of Version 3.3 on May 21st. Brought to fans by HoYoverse, this update—titled The Fall at Dawn’s Rise—marks the final chapter in the Flame-Chase Journey. Trailblazers will now fight side-by-side with the Chrysos Heirs in an epic conclusion that promises high stakes and unforgettable moments.
The Final Showdown with Aquila
At the heart of this update lies the climactic battle against Aquila—the colossal hundred-eyed avian capable of manipulating day and night with its eyelids. This confrontation follows directly after the Chrysos Heirs successfully reclaim the Coreflame of Death and Reason. Now, it’s time to face the ultimate challenge and bring closure to this dramatic story arc.
Amphoreus and the Mystery of Era Nova
Meanwhile, events on Amphoreus continue to unfold as residents pursue the elusive Era Nova. Across the galaxy, scholars and experts are closely observing these developments. The journey takes a deeper turn following the end of Version 3.2, where Madam Herta’s data spirit reached the Vortex of Genesis—an event that now begins to yield new revelations. As investigations progress, players will uncover the truth behind Amphoreus's downfall.
New 5-Star Characters Join the Battle
Version 3.3 also introduces two brand-new 5-star characters set to shake up gameplay:
- Hyacine – The idealistic chief physician of Twilight Courtyard, Hyacine believes in writing ordinary lives into the annals of history. On the battlefield, she serves as a Wind-element support character under the Path of Remembrance. Her abilities include a loyal helper named Little Ica, who provides healing whenever allies take damage or sacrifice HP.
- Cipher – A long-time companion in the Flame-Chase Journey alongside Aglaea and Tribbie, Cipher inherits the divine authority of Trickery. As a Quantum-element character on the Path of Nihility, Cipher excels at targeting enemies with the highest Max HP. She can dynamically switch targets mid-battle, and her Ultimate unleashes bonus True DMG based on accumulated punishment effects.
Returning Favorites & Exciting New Events
The Version 3.3 warp event brings back two beloved 5-star characters: Herta and Aglaea. Herta returns in the first half of the event, while Aglaea reappears in the second. If you missed them previously, now’s your chance to add them to your roster.
Among the surprise additions in this patch is the Penacony Speed Cup Spheroid Racing Tournament, where players can compete in high-speed Spheroid Racer challenges.
