New content<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Version 2.0 has Trailblazers heading to a new world: Penacony. Penacony is a luxury hotel with a unique connection to dreams, enabling visitors to explore certain shared Dreamscapes while asleep. A new Trailblaze mission will accompany the new region, continuing the main story of Honkai: Star Rail.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

New events include Hanu\u2019s Prison Break, from which they can claim a 4-star character of their choice as a reward. Other events include Dreamchaser Bulletin, Dreamjolt TV, and Penacony Food Fest. There will also be two login events that grant a total of 20 pulls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There will also be two new Relic sets and new Ascension materials for the new characters. New Light Cones will also be available in the Manifest store. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We can also expect various quality-of-life upgrades, including a visual representation of past stories, more support character options in your profile, and a more streamlined Relic upgrade system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We also got a tease of some real-life Star Rail <\/em>events on the horizon, including carnivals and concerts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It looks like there\u2019s a lot to look forward to in Honkai: Star Rail<\/em> Version 2.0. I\u2019ll see you all in Penacony!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
