Immerse in Paperfold's Anniversary Jubilee with Honkai: Star Rail V2.6!

Honkai: Star Rail Version 2.6: Annals of Pinecany's Mappou Age Arrives October 23rd!

HoYoverse has unveiled details for Honkai: Star Rail's version 2.6 update, "Annals of Pinecany's Mappou Age," launching October 23rd. This update transports players to Penacony and its vibrant Paperfold University, celebrating its anniversary with a bustling campus atmosphere filled with club recruitment drives, music, and academic events.

The Spotlight: Rappa

The update's star attraction is the new 5-star character, Rappa, a Galaxy Ranger who also identifies as a ninja. Her gameplay revolves around ninjutsu, incorporating ninja mantras, scrolls, graffiti, and rap. Rappa's mission is to hunt down the villainous Evil Ninja Osaru, utilizing her unique ultimate attack, Sealform Ningu: Demonbane Petalblade, a first-person perspective skill that slices through enemies and reduces their Toughness.

Honkai: Star Rail Version 2.6 Events

• Sound Hunt Ninjutsu Inscription: Players manage a band for the Dreamlight Anniversary music party, collaborating with Rappa for an electrifying performance.

• Warp Event: Limited 5-star characters Dan Heng • Imbibitor Lunae, Acheron, and Aventurine return in the warp event, spanning both halves of the update.

Honkai: Star Rail version 2.6 significantly expands the Simulated Universe. Following the success of Swarm Disaster and Gold and Gears, the third DLC, the Unknowable Domain, introduces a massive void linked to post-Second Emperor's War conflicts among scholars over the Scepter system – a powerful external thinking unit composed of inorganic bionic neurons. Players must collect and upgrade Scepters, creating synergistic combinations to defeat a challenging final boss.
