Honkai: Star Rail\'s newest expansion arrives the middle of this month, with a new planet and more

Honkai: Star Rail's next chapter launches January 15th, taking players to the enigmatic planet Amphoreus! This expansive update, spanning versions 3.0 to 3.7, promises to be the game's most ambitious yet.

The Astral Express, needing to refuel, lands on Amphoreus, a planet shrouded in mystery and a chaotic vortex, defying external observation. Its inhabitants are unaware of the wider universe, presenting a unique challenge for players.

Unraveling the Enigma

This expansion introduces three new playable characters: Herta, Aglaea, and the Remembrance Trailblazer. Familiar faces will also return, with limited five-star characters Lingsha Feixiao and Jade reappearing in the first half, alongside Boothill, Robin, and Silver Wolf in the second.

MiHoYo's commitment to Honkai: Star Rail is evident, following the successful launch of Zenless Zone Zero last year. This suggests a strong focus on making each of their titles a standout experience.
