The latest trailer for Honkai: Star Rail features the highly anticipated five-star character, Luocha. The trailer not only gives a glimpse into Luocha's backstory but also showcases his impressive gameplay animations. Following the successful launch of HoYoverse's sci-fi RPG, the first post-launch update introduced a new mini-game centered around management, as well as several enjoyable side events for players. Additionally, the update introduced the beloved five-star character, Silver Wolf, as the first new addition to the game. Now, in the second half of Version 1.1, players can look forward to the arrival of the enigmatic Luocha as a new five-star unit.

Although Luocha has yet to be officially released in-game, HoYoverse offered players a teaser during the initial launch version of Honkai: Star Rail. Through quests centered around Dan Heng's exploration of Xianzhou Luofu, Luocha was introduced as a "Trial" character, joining players' parties for the quests but not being directly controllable. Leaks have also provided hints about Luocha's gameplay, suggesting that he will specialize in support and healing. Now, HoYoverse has officially unveiled the traveling merchant, who is set to be released next week.

In addition to Luocha, another new character is set to debut in the second half of Honkai: Star Rail's Version 1.1. Yukong will be featured on Luocha's banner as a four-star character in the Harmony Path. Like Luocha, Yukong is also an Imaginary character and is expected to play a supportive role. Leaked information about Yukong's abilities suggests that she will focus on providing damage buffs to allies. Her Skill will increase allies' ATK, while her Ultimate will boost Crit Rate and Crit Damage. Both Luocha and Yukong play significant roles in the storyline of the Xianzhou Luofu.

In addition to the upcoming characters in Version 1.1, many fans are already eagerly anticipating the Version 1.2 update of Honkai: Star Rail. The developers at HoYoverse have previously announced three playable characters who will make their debut in this update. One of the most highly-anticipated characters is Kafka, who will be joined by the Stellaron Hunter Blade and Jarilo-IV's Luka. There are also rumors circulating that other characters from the Honkai: Star Rail story, such as Fu Xuan and Xueyi, may also become playable in the future. With the addition of Luocha, Honkai: Star Rail's roster of support characters continues to grow. Honkai: Star Rail is currently available for PC and mobile devices, with a PS5 version set to launch in Q4 2023.
