Honkai: Star Rail 3.1 Launches "Shadow Greets the Throne"

Honkai: Star Rail Version 3.1, titled 'Light Slips the Gate, Shadow Greets the Throne,' arrives on February 26. The Flame-Chase Journey intensifies, guiding Trailblazers into unexplored realms filled with fresh mysteries.

Honkai Star Rail Version 3.1 Introduces New Characters

Two new 5-star characters, Tribbie and Mydei, join the roster. Continuing the storyline after securing Nikador’s Coreflame, players will advance to a new area called the Grove of Epiphany.

During the main Trailblaze Mission, you'll rescue survivors and uncover the truth behind the catastrophic events. Your next objective is to reclaim Cerces’ Coreflame, restoring hope to Okhema.

Version 3.1 delves into the Abyss of Fate, previously known as Janusopolis, now revealed in its Day State. This setting uncovers the lost history of the Era Chrysea and explores Tribbie’s personal past.

Tribbie, also known as Tribios, is a demigod and a 5-star Quantum character on the Path of Harmony. As the Holy Maiden of Janusopolis, she received a prophecy from Kephale concerning Deliverance and dedicated herself to spreading its message.

Mydei, the crown prince of Castrum Kremnos, is a warrior with the heart of a lion. He is a 5-star Imaginary character following the Path of Destruction. He consumes his own HP to build energy, entering an enhanced state where he automatically attacks enemies on his turn.

Get a first look at these two characters in the video below.

Returning Characters

Version 3.1 also features the return of popular limited 5-star characters. Yunli will be available in the first phase of the warp event, followed by Huohuo in the second phase.

The update introduces a new season of Divergent Universe, focusing on Amphoreus research and a Day and Night System for combat. This system dynamically alters battle conditions, activating different buffs and effects based on the time of day.

Additionally, The Awooo Firm event lets you take on a management role to assist the chimera squad in Okhema. Download the game from the Google Play Store and prepare for the update launching on February 26.
