by

Summary

  • Honkai: Star Rail leak teases new banner showcasing buffed old characters.
  • Game developers plan to buff old characters to make them viable in end-game activities.
  • Rumors suggest old character rerun banner but take it with a pinch of salt.

Information from a recent leak suggests that Honkai: Star Rail may soon introduce a new banner featuring some of its older characters who have been given significant buffs to enhance their power and utility. This game regularly receives updates which expand the playable character roster, but as time has passed, certain original characters have become less effective due to the addition of more powerful newcomers.

To help players find a place for older characters in their teams, Honkai: Star Rail is planning to enhance some existing characters. This information was shared during the Amphoreus radio broadcast for version 3.0. The developers explained that they aim to adjust these characters so they can perform well in end-game activities. While specific characters and the timeline for these updates remain unannounced, the community has responded favorably. Now, a fresh leak suggests even more positive news about these character changes.

User Ubatcha1 speculates that HoYoverse could soon introduce a new Honkai: Star Rail banner, featuring characters who have recently received buff updates. This banner may include four-star and five-star characters, although the specific characters and release date are yet to be revealed. The user claims to have found evidence for this upcoming banner but cautions that the information remains somewhat dubious, promising to share further details if more information becomes available.

Honkai: Star Rail Plans to Breathe New Life into Old Characters with Buffs

Users are puzzled about the prospect of a re-run banner for previously released characters. Although the leak doesn’t provide further details on how it will function, some speculate that those who already own these characters will receive the buffs at no extra cost. On the other hand, new players may have an opportunity to draw the enhanced versions with the new banner. Additionally, users have expressed their wishes for specific characters such as Silver Wolf (the intelligent hacker), Arlan (the head of Herta Space Station’s security), and Blade (the formidable swordsman introduced in Honkai: Star Rail version 1.2) to receive buffs.

While it’s plausible that reusing familiar characters could generate more revenue for developers, as suggested by Ubatcha1, this information should be treated with caution. This is because leaks can often change or even get scrapped before they become official. On the other hand, if you’re eager to give the new faces a shot, Aglalea is the latest character in Honkai: Star Rail, available on the Phase 2 banner of version 3.0 until February 25th.
