Honkai Star Rail Version 3.1 Introduces New Characters

Tribbie, also known as Tribios, is a demigod and a 5-star Quantum character following the Path of Harmony. As the Holy Maiden of Janusopolis, she received a prophecy from Kephale about Deliverance and embarked on a mission to spread this message.

Mydei, the crown prince of Castrum Kremnos, is a fierce warrior and a 5-star Imaginary character following the Path of Destruction. He sacrifices his own HP to charge up, then transforms into an enhanced form, automatically attacking enemies during his turns.

Returning Characters

Version 3.1 also offers another chance to obtain some returning characters. The limited 5-star characters Yunli and Huohuo are making a comeback. Yunli will be available in the first half of the warp event, while Huohuo will appear in the second half.
