HoYoverse has announced the date and time for a Special Program livestream that will provide details about the Honkai: Star Rail Version 1.2 update. Fans of the space-fantasy RPG are eagerly anticipating this second official update, and the developers are eager to share new information during the livestream.
Despite being a turn-based RPG, Honkai: Star Rail will receive regular updates throughout the year, including new content, playable characters, and limited-time events. HoYoverse is committed to providing post-launch support, as demonstrated by the 20 million players who joined the game during its launch week. The previous update, Version 1.1, introduced the playable character Silver Wolf and various new events in June. Version 1.2, set to be released later this month, will bring even more new content to the game.
The Version 1.2 Special Program will take place this week, as confirmed by the official Honkai: Star Rail Twitter account. The live broadcast is scheduled for Saturday, July 8 at 7:30 AM Eastern Time. The post also reveals that Version 1.2 will be titled "Even Immortality Ends," hinting at potential story implications. More information about the update will be shared by HoYoverse soon, including the distribution of Stellar Jade redemption codes during the broadcast.
According to recent leaks, the Special Program may introduce a new weekly boss in Honkai: Star Rail. Additionally, fans can expect Stellaron Hunter Kafka to become a playable character after being teased on HoYoverse's official channels for several weeks. If the leaks are accurate, Version 1.2 may also offer new login bonuses, providing players with plenty of Star Rail Special Passes that can be used to summon characters from Event Warps.
The new Special Program promises to be an exciting show for passionate Honkai: Star Rail players, as HoYoverse continues to enhance the popular game and introduce fresh content. This upcoming broadcast also serves as an opportunity for HoYoverse to foster goodwill with its community by offering free rewards. Furthermore, HoYoverse's commitment to its global player base and continuous post-launch improvements ensures even greater success for Honkai: Star Rail in the near future.
Although Honkai: Star Rail boasts impressive content and features, there is still room for improvement, particularly in the Memory of Chaos endgame activity. However, players can look forward to the Version 1.2 Special Program, which is expected to directly address any criticisms, as HoYoverse consistently brings significant bug fixes and adjustments with each game update.
Honkai: Star Rail is available now for Android, iOS, and PC, A PlayStation 5 version launches in Q4 2023.
