Honkai: Star Rail 2.6 Unveils Festive Anniversary at Paperfold University

Honkai: Star Rail Version 2.6: "Annals of Pinecany's Mappou Age" Arrives October 23rd!

HoYoverse has unveiled details for Honkai: Star Rail's Version 2.6 update, titled "Annals of Pinecany's Mappou Age," launching October 23rd. This update transports players to Penacony and its vibrant Paperfold University, celebrating its anniversary with a bustling campus atmosphere.

New Character and Gameplay

The highlight is the new 5-star character, Rappa, a Galaxy Ranger with a ninja flair. Her ninjutsu-based attacks, including graffiti and rap elements, are key to her gameplay. Rappa's ultimate, Sealform Ningu: Demonbane Petalblade, features a first-person perspective, allowing players to slice through enemies and significantly reduce their Toughness. She's on a mission to track down the villainous Evil Ninja Osaru.

Events and Updates

Version 2.6 includes several events:

  • Sound Hunt Ninjutsu Inscription: Manage a band for the Dreamlight Anniversary music party, collaborating with Rappa for an electrifying performance.
  • Re-runs of limited 5-star characters Dan Heng • Imbibitor Lunae, Acheron, and Aventurine will be available in the warp event during the update's first and second halves.

The Simulated Universe receives a major expansion, surpassing the scale of previous updates like Swarm Disaster and Gold and Gears. The third DLC, "The Unknowable Domain," introduces a massive void connected to post-Second Emperor's War conflicts centered around the powerful Scepter system. Players will gather Scepters, upgrade them with Components, and exploit synergies to defeat a challenging final boss.
