Get ready for an exciting update as Honkai: Star Rail rolls out its Version 3.2 update titled 'Through the Petals in the Land of Repose' on April 9th. This update brings a fresh narrative chapter, thrilling battles, and introduces new characters to the game. Moreover, HoYoVerse is preparing to celebrate the game's two-year anniversary with a series of special events and generous giveaways.
What’s in Store in Honkai: Star Rail Version 3.2?
Version 3.2 introduces two new 5-star characters: Castorice (Remembrance) and Anaxa (Erudition). Castorice, known as a Chrysos Heir, carries the heavy burden of the Touch of Death as she embarks on a quest to retrieve the lost Coreflame of Death, armed with her powerful Netherwing. Her tragic backstory adds depth to her character, making her a compelling addition to any team.
On the other hand, Anaxa, one of the Seven Sages of the Grove of Epiphany, brings a scholarly perspective to the fray. His harrowing experiences have reshaped his understanding of reality. With his Ultimate ability, Sublimation, Anaxa can apply seven Weaknesses to all enemies simultaneously, making him a formidable asset in combat.
The update also features the return of some fan-favorite characters. In the first half of Version 3.2, you can expect reruns of Fugue, Jiaoqiu, and Acheron. If you missed out on Dr. Ratio last time, you'll have another chance to pull for him during the second half of the update.
HoYoVerse has teased upcoming balance changes in Version 3.4 for characters like Silver Wolf, Blade, Kafka, and Jingliu. Although details are sparse, these adjustments have been long awaited by the community. In the meantime, you can get a sneak peek of what Version 3.2 has to offer by watching the trailer below.
The Story This Time Is Heading to Styxia
The narrative of Version 3.2 takes players to Styxia, a forgotten city submerged beneath the Sea of Souls, filled with dragon bones and haunted by spirits. As Trailblazers, you'll guide Castorice through this eerie landscape, unraveling the mysteries of the Titans and the catastrophic draconic event that led to the city's downfall.
As part of the anniversary celebrations, HoYoVerse is rewarding players with 20 free pulls just for logging in. On the anniversary day, April 26th, players will receive 1,600 Stellar Jades and a special in-game card from a companion. Additionally, players will have the opportunity to select a free 5-star character from either Ruan Mei or Luocha.
