A Honkai: Star Rail leak has revealed details about a new weapon that belongs to one of the starter characters, March 7th. This four-star Preservation character has been part of the game's main storyline since the beginning and players can add her to their roster for free.
Here's More Proof We Need a Honkai: Star Rail Anime | Push Square

HoYoverse, with its absurd gacha-fuelled riches, has taken to releasing more and more animated shorts to promote its game’s updates. This latest five-minute Honkai: Star Rail clip delves a little deeper into the relationship between Black Swan and Acheron, the latter of whom will headline the v2.1 update which is launching next week.
Here's how it could look
For those who haven’t been keeping up with the Penacony storyline, effectively Black Swan is a Memokeeper from the Garden of Recollection, which means she’s capable of seeing into the souls of her subjects and reading their memories. In this instance, however, her subject harbours memories that probably shouldn’t be seen.
The whole sequence unfolds during a particularly tense dance, with some beautiful animation work and striking moments. It’s pretty high budget for something that’s been uploaded for free to YouTube, but ultimately we suspect the sales of Acheron will more than cover the costs. Personally, we can’t wait to add her to our lineup.

He’s an expert on PS Studios and industry matters, as well as sports games and simulators. He also enjoys RPGs when he has the time to dedicate to them, and is a bit of a gacha whale.
It's almost like Genshin funds their more creative projects for their other games. Not that Honkai doesn't make money too.
@ATaco I think generally they just have more money than they know what to do with.
@get2sammyb Yup Acheron is a must have. Her technique to 1 shot enemies on the field and prevent encounters will be most appreciated while I'm trying to get all the hidden chests and puzzles in an area.
@z0d15g0d Agreed. Can’t wait to add her to my party!
This 50/50 is due soon. Please let it be Acheron.
Didn't they announce a Genshin Impact anime in 2023? I hope it's still coming. Maybe they'll make a Honkai anime too.

UK Sales Charts: Dragon's Dogma 2, Rise of the Ronin Off to a Weak Start at Retail | Push Square
It sounds like Dragon's Dogma 2 and Rise of the Ronin — both released on Friday of last week — have struggled to make an immediate impact in the UK. While we don't have the full sales charts just yet, GamesIndustry.biz's ever-knowledgeable Christopher Dring has outlined the relative success of the new releases, and it's fair to say that neither game has done well. At least, not at retail.

Horizon Forbidden West Off to a Sturdy Enough Start on PC | Push Square
There’s an argument that the novelty of Sony’s delayed single player PC ports has worn off, but Horizon Forbidden West is bucking that trend. The open world sequel, converted by Nixxes, has opened to a respectable peak of 35,168 concurrent users on Steam, making it the sixth biggest PS Studios launch on the platform to date – just a hair behind The Last of Us: Part 1. There’s a good chance it’ll overtake the Naughty Dog remake later in the weekend.
