miHoYo, the developer of Honkai: Star Rail, has announced the release of version 1.5 of the update, titled “The Crepuscule Zone,” scheduled for November 15. This exciting update introduces a new location called Fyxestroll Garden in the Xianzhou Luofu, filled with paranormal cases and three new playable characters: Huohuo, Hanya and Argenti.
Update summary: Update 1.5 takes the Trailblazers to explore Fyxestroll Garden, a spooky, unexplored area in Xianzhou Luofu. After the destruction of the Creation Foundry Craft Commission, the trapped Heliobi have found refuge in Fyxestroll Garden, making it one of the most dangerous places. Heliobi, beings created from accumulated grievances, can inhabit people and control their senses, souls, and even their bodies.
New playable characters:
- Huohuo (Five Star, Wind Type): Huohuo, an apprentice judge of the Ten Lords Commission, joins the playable cast. Her ability restores hit points to an ally and adjacent teammates, while her Ultimate rejuvenates the Trailblazers’ energy.
- Hanya (Four Star, Physical Type): Hanya, also a judge in the Commission of Ten Lords, specializes in reading the karmic sins of criminals and uses her Oracle Brush to determine their sins. Her ability deals physical damage to a single target and can affect the target with a Charge status.
- Argenti (Five Star, Physical Type): A noble and admirable member of the Knights of Beauty, Argenti follows the Path of Scholarship. His ultimate triggers different effects depending on the amount of energy consumed, dealing damage to all enemies when a small amount of energy is expended and dealing significantly increased damage multiple times when consuming all of his energy, with additional damage to a randomly selected target. .
In addition to the introduction of new playable characters, Trailblazers can participate in exciting events, such as helping March 7th restore their beloved photographs. An update to the Guestbook feature will also be implemented, allowing Trailblazers to review their friends’ visit history to the Astral Express. Finally, for those looking for more challenges, the latest Genius Society update, “Simulated Universe: World 8,” will also be released soon.
Honkai: Star Rail is available for PlayStation 5, PC via client download and Epic Games Store, iOS via the App Store, and Android via Google Play. A version for PlayStation 4 is also planned.
