"Hope Rekindled in Honkai Star Rail 3.1 Update:

Get ready for an exciting new chapter in *Honkai: Star Rail* with Version 3.1, titled ‘Light Slips the Gate, Shadow Greets the Throne,’ set to launch on February 26th. The Flame-Chase Journey intensifies, propelling Trailblazers into uncharted territories and deeper into the game's mysterious narrative.

Honkai Star Rail Version 3.1 Introduces New Characters

Version 3.1 brings the spotlight on two new 5-star characters: Tribbie and Mydei. Following the securing of Nikador’s Coreflame in previous updates, players will now venture into the Grove of Epiphany as part of the main Trailblaze Mission. Your mission involves rescuing survivors and unraveling the mysteries of a recent catastrophe, ultimately aiming to reclaim Cerces’ Coreflame and restore hope to Okhema.

The update also takes you into the Abyss of Fate, previously known as Janusopolis, now revealed in its Day State. Here, the narrative delves into the forgotten history of the Era Chrysea and the backstory of Tribbie, also known as Tribios. As a 5-star Quantum character on the Path of Harmony, Tribbie, the Holy Maiden of Janusopolis, spreads a prophecy of Deliverance given to her by Kephale.

Mydei, on the other hand, is the crown prince of Castrum Kremnos and a formidable 5-star Imaginary character on the Path of Destruction. He uses his own HP to charge up and enters an enhanced state where he automatically attacks enemies during his turns, showcasing the ferocity of a lion.

Who’s Returning?

Version 3.1 also welcomes back some fan-favorite characters. The limited 5-star characters Yunli and Huohuo are returning for another round. Yunli will be available in the first half of the warp event, while Huohuo will grace the second half.

In terms of events, the new season of Divergent Universe introduces a research focus on Amphoreus and a Day and Night System, which alters combat dynamics with varying buffs and effects depending on the time of day.

Another highlight is The Awooo Firm event, where players take on a managerial role to support the chimera squad in Okhema. Make sure to download *Honkai: Star Rail* from the Google Play Store and prepare for this thrilling update on February 26th.
