Fans of Honkai: Star Rail are showing a lot of love for the latest event in Aurum Alley. Named "Aurum Alley's Hustle and Bustle," this event allows players to participate in the rejuvenation of one of Xianzhou Luofu's shopping districts.
With the recent release of Honkai: Star Rail Version 1.3, the game has received several new features, including the addition of the Aurum Alley area within Xianzhou Luofu. Although it may not be as expansive as other regions on the map, players can still interact with intriguing non-playable characters and solve puzzles to pass the time. However, the main attraction is undoubtedly the Aurum Alley's Hustle and Bustle event, where players will aid the Merchant Guild and Aurum Alley shops in matters of logistics and trade as part of an extensive restoration project.
Since the start of the Aurum Alley event less than a week ago, Honkai: Star Rail fans have been raving about it. According to a Reddit post by user toadkarter1993, the event has made them more invested in the Luofu than the main quest itself, as it has added depth to the game world instead of just being "corridors of shipping containers." In the comments, another player expressed that Aurum Alley has become their favorite location in the game due to the significant transformation it undergoes after completing the event. Additionally, fans appreciated how the event focused on the NPCs in Aurum Alley, making them feel important and providing enjoyable puzzles and mini-games.
As Version 1.3 marks the end of Honkai: Star Rail's Xianzhou Luofu arc, some players have voiced their dissatisfaction with the gloomy main story missions, which they felt lacked humanity. However, as fans like toadkarter1993 have pointed out, the Aurum Alley's Hustle and Bustle event succeeded in humanizing the residents of Luofu and bringing life to the game world. This sentiment was similarly shared during the Everwinter City Museum Event, where players were able to delve into the rich history of Belobog City.
Players of Honkai: Star Rail have until September 18 to claim the limited-time rewards and a free Sushang in Aurum Alley. However, they can still access the area and receive regular rewards even after the deadline. It's also worth noting that players can continue to play the Inventory Arrangement puzzle for entertainment, even after completing all the required event missions.
Honkai: Star Rail has already had several successful limited-time events, including some less popular ones like the Boulder Town: Super League Event. However, with the creative approach that HoYoverse has taken in developing events for Honkai: Star Rail, dedicated players can look forward to more enjoyable and engaging activities in the future.
Honkai: Star Rail is now available on Mobile and PC. A PS5 version is in development.
