Reignite Hope in Honkai Star Rail Version 3.1 ‘Light Slips the Gate, Shadow Greets the Throne’

Honkai: Star Rail's Version 3.1, "Light Slips the Gate, Shadow Greets the Throne," launches February 26th, escalating the Flame-Chase Journey into uncharted territories and new mysteries.

New 5-Star Characters in Honkai Star Rail Version 3.1

Version 3.1 introduces two new 5-star characters: Tribbie and Mydei. Following the securing of Nikador's Coreflame, players will explore the new Grove of Epiphany map. The main Trailblaze Mission involves rescuing survivors and uncovering the truth behind a catastrophic event, culminating in the retrieval of Cerces' Coreflame to restore hope to Okhema.

The update delves into the Abyss of Fate (formerly Janusopolis), now revealed in its Day State. This exploration unearths the long-lost history of the Era Chrysea and Tribbie's past. Tribbie (Tribios), the Holy Maiden of Janusopolis, is a 5-star Quantum character following the Path of Harmony, who received a prophecy from Kephale and spread its message.

Mydei, the crown prince of Castrum Kremnos, is a fierce 5-star Imaginary character following the Path of Destruction. His combat style involves sacrificing HP to power up, entering an enhanced state where he automatically attacks enemies during his turns.
