The Age, Height, Path And Element Of All Honkai: Star Rail’s Playable Characters

Honkai: Star Rail is a turn-based RPG from HoYoverse, creators of Honkai Impact 3rd and Genshin Impact. It’s a spin-off title that takes place after the events of A Post-Honkai Odyssey – a self-contained part of Honkai Impact 3rd set eight years after the main story that sees the majority of Honkai sealed on the moon by Kiana, before humanity is invaded by aliens known as the Sky People.

Honkai: Star Rail focuses on the war against the Sky People, and includes some Honkai Impact 3rd characters, as well as some alternative or adjusted versions. You play as the Trailblazer, journeying through space on a giant train known as the Astral Express. The aim is to explore different worlds and space stations, confronting the Sky People on their own turf and trying to protect as many planets and factions as possible from this formidable foe.
