HoYoverse has officially announced the addition of the character Lynx to the upcoming four-star Honkai: Star Rail. Players in the community are eagerly anticipating her arrival in a future update. Various leaks about Lynx's move-set have surfaced, and HoYoverse has now released official information about her personality.
With the launch of Version 1.2, Honkai: Star Rail will boast a roster of nearly 30 playable characters. And the main story will continue to introduce even more characters in future updates. The recent Version 1.1 update introduced Luocha and Yukong, and Blade, Luka, and Kafka are expected to be added in Version 1.2. Honkai: Star Rail players have the opportunity to summon all of these characters through limited-time Event Warps, which change with each phase of an update. As the Version 1.2 Special Program live stream approaches, HoYoverse has already started unveiling characters for Version 1.3.
HoYoverse's official Honkai: Star Rail Twitter account unveiled Lynx, the Landau family's youngest daughter and a forthcoming four-star character in Version 1.3. Lynx is known as one of Belobog's top explorers in extreme environments, exhibiting exceptional skills despite occasional lack of motivation. Additionally, she possesses a introverted nature and tends to avoid unnecessary conversations. Furthermore, Honkai: Star Rail's official character artwork for Lynx showcases her as a Quantum character following the Path of Abundance. Lynx's English voice actor is Risa Mei, who also voices Sangonomiya Kokomi in Genshin Impact.
The reveal of Lynx in Honkai: Star Rail has garnered positive feedback from players on social media, with some anticipating her usefulness as a Quantum healer in potential Version 1.3 team compositions. Alongside the five-star Quantum character Fu Xuan, Lynx will be available in Version 1.3. However, specific release date details and new banners for the update have not yet been disclosed by HoYoverse.
The release of Honkai: Star Rail Version 1.3 is anticipated to be in late August 2023, meaning players only have to wait another month for more information about Lynx to be disclosed.
HoYoverse will be holding the Honkai: Star Rail Version 1.2 Special Program on July 8th, where they will showcase the game's upcoming characters and content. While it is unlikely that Lynx will be featured in the live stream, fans of Honkai: Star Rail can still anticipate exciting reveals of new content and the opportunity to receive promo codes.
Honkai: Star Rail is available now for Android, iOS, and PC. A PlayStation 5 version launches in Q4 2023.
