Honkai Star Rail - Version 2.6

Honkai: Star Rail, miHoYo’s free-to-play RPG, will receive its next big content update on October 23rd. Version 2.6, “Annals of Pinecany’s Mappou Age”, sees the Astral Express returning to Penacony and exploring the new Paperfold University. Check out the reveal trailer below.

The Trailblaze Continuance mission sees the Caelus/Stelle, March 7th, and Dan Heng enrolling in the university, though something devious is seemingly occurring in the shadows. It draws the attention of Rappa, the new five-star character and a Galaxy Ranger like Boothill. Following the Path of the Erudition, she deals Imaginary damage in combat.

The update also marks a new Simulated Universe mode, where players gain Scepters and modify them with Components for different effects. Major five-star characters like Dan Heng – Imbibitor Lunae, Acheron, and Aventurine will also briefly return during the update. Stay tuned for more details when it goes live in the coming weeks.

Honkai: Star Rail is available for PS5, PC, iOS, and Android. Check out our review of the base game here.
