Honkai: Star Rail and Zenless Zone Zero both graced The Game Awards 2024 with new trailers. The Honkai: Star Rail trailer showcased Amphoreus, a new location, and teased a mysterious character, Castorice. The footage also featured a retrospective of previously explored areas.
The Amphoreus preview, with its Grecian-inspired architecture, is likely to excite Honkai fans. The identity and role of Castorice remain shrouded in mystery, adding intrigue to the upcoming update. The trailer's visuals suggest a strong Hellenic influence in the design of Amphoreus, aligning with MiHoYo's tendency to draw inspiration from real-world cultures.
Castorice's appearance continues MiHoYo's trend of introducing enigmatic female characters before their full reveal. While details are scarce, her design certainly hints at a compelling narrative contribution.
