Honkai Star Rail 3.2 to Introduce Changes to Banner System for More Player Freedom

Honkai: Star Rail's gacha system is getting a major overhaul, giving players more control over their character pulls. Leaks suggest version 3.2 will introduce a customizable pity system for limited banners, a significant change to how the gacha works. Instead of the standard 50/50 pull, players will choose their preferred characters from a select group to populate their personalized pity pool.

According to leaks from Sakura Haven, the current 50/50 pity pool of 7 standard characters will be replaced. Starting in version 3.2, players will select 7 characters from a larger "Group" to form their personalized 50/50 pity pool. This means losing the 50/50 will now reward a character from *your* chosen pool, not the default set.

Initially, this "Group" will include the 7 standard characters plus a selection of others. This customizable pity system directly addresses a common gacha frustration: the randomness of losing pity pulls. By prioritizing desired characters, players gain a better chance of obtaining units that fit their playstyle.

While details on which characters will be selectable remain unclear—past limited characters, current banner units, or new additions are all possibilities—the potential impact is huge. This player-centric change reflects HoYoverse's commitment to refining Honkai: Star Rail and could set a new standard for gacha game design.

The community is buzzing with anticipation. The customizable pity system promises a more enjoyable and strategic gacha experience, and the launch of Honkai: Star Rail 3.2 is highly anticipated.
