Summary
A newHonkai: Star Railleak has revealed that seven characters, including Tingyun and Sushang, will get their reruns in version 1.6. It was confirmed a few weeks ago that Ruan Mei, Dr. Ratio, and Xueyi will soon make their debut in the game alongside several rerun banners that have yet to be confirmed. In version 1.6,Honkai: Star Rail’s weapon banner will also be expandedwith Baptism of Pure Thought and Past Self in Mirror Light Cones, which give a passive ability and increase the wearer’s base stats.
Recently, a couple of leaks indicated thatHonkai: Star Railwill give Blade and Kafka their rerunsin version 1.6 later this year. Though information about the future banner order has been scarce, some reliable insiders said these characters will become available in different phases. That aside, version 1.6 is rumored to bring several limited-time festivities that will reward players with Stellar Jades and other in-game materials. Fortunately,Honkai: Star Railplayers will learn every detail about the upcoming update when the developers host a Special Program on December 15th.
A recentHonkai: Star Railleak from pulslehas revealed that Tingyun, Natasha, Hook, Sushang, and March 7th will be featured in the version 1.6 lineup. According to the leak, Natasha, Hook, and Sushang will be a part of Dr. Ratio’s banner, while Tingyun and March 7th will come alongside Ruan Mei and Xueyi two weeks before them. This is a bit surprising, given that Blade and Kafka will also receive event warps for a limited time inHonkai: Star Rail’s version 1.6. If the leak is to be believed, it will be one of the largest character rosters featured in a single update.
Honkai: Star Rail Version 1.6 Character Re-runs
These four-star characters are already available inHonkai: Star Rail’s permanent Departure Warp Banner, which requires players to spend their regular Star Passes to expand their roster. However, it should be noted that their boost rate will significantly increase if they receive a limited-time rerun. There is also a strong chance that some of them will be absent from the version 1.6 banner cycle.
Alongside Light Cones and rerun characters,version 1.6 will reportedly bring new Curios toHonkai: Star Rail’s Simulated Universe, which players can collect to receive useful buffs. They will make it easier to fight through different worlds by giving powerful blessings. Additionally, there will be a new Simulated Universe event, which provides Trailblazers with lucrative rewards, in version 1.6 later this month.
