Open-world and dungeon exploration with a customizable party of 4.

(Although leaks reveal up to 18 characters at this time.)Īmazing orchestra-created original soundtrack to be expected. There are currently 7 revealed characters, 3 male and 4 female.

So could Star Rail overtake Genshin? Let’s take a look:Īmazing graphics engine that is running Genshin Impact and Honkai Impact 3rd. Star Rail follows in the tracks of Honkai Impact 3rd, which was miHoYo’s biggest title before Genshin took the throne. But what they have shared is all very exciting. Update: It looks like the Discord server's bot is congested and you won't get a role or be able to post anytime soon.Now, miHoYo hasn’t revealed everything about the game- much of it is still under wraps. A new Twitter is also online, alongside pages on Facebook, Instagram, and a Discord. If miHoYo follows the same pattern as for the pre-release Beta Tests for Genshin Impact, players participating will not be under NDA and will be freely able to share content and impressions, so look forward to it.Ī YouTube page was also opened but it has no videos yet. In any case, the Honkai Star Rail Beta Test registration will start on October 8. Seeing miHoYo's past works, it's all but confirmed Star Rail is a parallel universe to the one in Honkai Impact 3rd. Unlike Matsumoto Leiji though, where it's useless thinking about a timeline and whatnot, it seems very likely everything is intricately linked together here. Creating a multiverse with several versions of the same character. This makes perfect sense seeing miHoYo, just like the legendary sci-fi mangaka, is keen to re-using characters while slightly tweaking their backstories. This is a clear and direct inspiration from the works of Leiji Matsumoto and Galaxy Express 999 (or Night of the Galactic Railroad but I still haven't read that.) The first key visual for Honkai Star Rail shows the JRPG is exactly what it says, and will feature a space train. Honkai Star Rail officially revealed, Closed Beta Test registration date
