Many avid players have already started theorycrafting team compositions for both banner characters, and the rumored 5-star rerun units might also be ideal for their respective teams. Honkai: Star Rail leaker StepLeaks recently posted photos of the alleged returning characters in Version 2.7, which are Jing Yuan and Firefly.

Honkai: Star Rail Version 2.7 Rumored Rerun Banner Phases
- First phase: Sunday (Imaginary, Harmony) and Jing Yuan (Lightning, Erudition)
- Second phase: Fugue (Fire, Nihility) and Firefly (Fire, Destruction)
In the comments, many Honkai: Star Rail fans said they weren’t surprised about the rumored rerun characters, mostly because they think Jing Yuan and Firefly might synergize well with the 5-stars they’re paired with. Some also expressed their disappointment because they were expecting characters like Boothill and Dr. Ratio in Version 2.7, as well as the three-character banner from a previous Honkai: Star Rail update.
Version 2.7’s story is still under wraps, but it’s possible that the Trailblazer might remain in Penacony to meet up with Sunday. It’s also possible that the story might go back to Xianzhou Luofu because Fugue might still be there. With less than a month left before the final update of the year comes out, Honkai: Star Rail has to close it out in a big way.

Said to be a Greek-inspired planet in Honkai Star Rail, this mysterious location will have new story missions, enemies, a possible new Path, and, of course, characters that players can pull in upcoming banners.
