In the replies, many fans were surprised that Honkai: Star Rail revealed a new Path, especially since Remembrance is only available as a Blessing in the Simulated Universe. Others also expressed their struggle with choosing between The Herta and Aglaea in Honkai: Star Rail Version 3.0’s banner.
What Does Aglaea Being a Remembrance Character Mean For Honkai: Star Rail?
It’s been rumored for a while that Honkai: Star Rail will introduce the new Path of Remembrance in Version 3.0, with the Trailblazer possibly adopting it for their next form. Some leakers suggest that Remembrance characters will have the unique ability of summoning “servants,” who have their own set of attacks and skills on the battlefield. Considering that Aglaea is a dressmaker and her splash art features mannequins, it’s possible that she might be able to summon one or multiples of them to aid her in combat. HoYoverse has yet to confirm the servant mechanic, but if it’s true, it will be the first time that Honkai: Star Rail will incorporate this into its gameplay. It will definitely be interesting to see how the mechanic could shift the meta and affect team compositions in Version 3.0 and beyond.
Meanwhile, Honkai: Star Rail fans will have to wait until December for the official Version 3.0 Special Program stream, which will tease the next Trailblaze Continuance Missions, Amphoreus’ locations, and Aglaea and The Herta’s full kit. It might even showcase other playable characters that will come out in the next few months of 2025.
