Greetings everyone! I’m thrilled to share some exciting news about our latest space fantasy RPG — Honkai: Star Rail. Thanks to the unwavering support of our loyal community and the tireless efforts of our development team, I’m pleased to announce that Honkai: Star Rail will be released for PS5 on October 11, 2023.
Have you ever stared up at the starry night sky and let your imagination wander beyond the confines of our world? Or perhaps you have envisioned a train patiently stationed, poised for departure on an exhilarating journey? In Honkai Star Rail, a train journeys amidst the twinkling stars, bearing witness to many breathtaking realms. These realms might encompass a futuristic space station, a snow-clad desolate terrain, or even a colossal spaceship navigating through the vast expanse of emptiness.
In Honkai: Star Rail, you will step into the shoes of the protagonist and embark on an odyssey across the cosmos aboard the Astral Express. Embracing the mantle of The Trailblazer, you will venture into the far reaches of the universe, uncovering the veiled truths of ancient legends, partaking in both exploration and combat across diverse realms. You will extend a helping hand to those in need, forging steadfast alliances along the way. Meanwhile, we are committed to providing you with an immersive gaming experience, whether you are navigating outer space, journeying through snowy landscapes, or even dumpster diving with trashcans on the side of the road. Join us, dear Trailblazer, as we reach for the stars and embark on this boundless cosmic exploration together.
Exploration lies at the core of each adventure, and be assured that you will encounter abundant opportunities to delve into unique cultures, meet trustworthy companions, and unveil captivating landscapes while venturing through unexplored domains.
In the world of Honkai: Star Rail, your adventure kicks off at the Herta Space Station, a futuristic location packed with all sorts of high-tech gizmos. It is Madam Herta from the Genius Society who owns this place, and it was first set up to gather all kinds of cool stuff called Curios. But as time rolled on, it turned into a scientific research hub managed by Herta’s followers. In this place, you will cross paths with Kafka, a graceful lady who gave you a wake-up call by injecting a Stellaron into you when the Antimatter Legion was causing chaos. Kafka is a Stellaron Hunter, living life on the edge. She is a mix of intriguing and mysterious vibes, but definitely not someone to mess with. We do not know a whole lot about her, except that she is a big shot in the Stellaron Hunters and is on the radar of quite a few organizations, for all the wrong reasons.
As your journey begins, you and the crew
