Rumor: Popular Honkai: Star Rail Character Might Get Another Form
A recently revealed Honkai: Star Rail leak reveals that a widely popular four-star character might receive a new form in the future.
A new post on the Honkai: Star Rail Leaks subreddit claims that with the release of the upcoming update 3.0, players will be able to use 120 FPS on PC. The current PC version of the game is limited to 60 FPS. The provided screenshot shows that players will be able to choose between 30, 60, and 120 FPS. Some fans have pointed out that players previously found ways to play the game at higher frame rates by using third-party tools like Registry Editor. However, comments suggest that most avoided this approach as it seemed risky, and they didn’t want to risk an account ban. Many fans now agree it’s great news that they’ll be able to enjoy improved FPS in the next Honkai: Star Rail update without needing additional tools.
Honkai: Star Rail 3.0 Changes Explained
This FPS improvement apparently won’t be the only significant change in the upcoming update, as multiple Honkai: Star Rail leaks hint at an overhaul to the banner system. According to several sources, the limited banners will include double the number of characters compared to usual. Currently, each banner cycle features two five-star and three four-star units. However, the leaks suggest that Honkai: Star Rail 3.0 will feature four five-star characters per banner cycle, eight in total.
Fans have been requesting a similar change for many months, as the roster continues to grow, and some characters go several updates without being featured in a re-run. Many players speculate that these changes might be experimental and could potentially be implemented in other HoYoverse games, like Genshin Impact. Five-star limited characters in Genshin have gone over 500 days without appearing on a banner in some cases. Honkai: Star Rail has previously confirmed that Version 3.0 will introduce two new five-star characters: Aglaea and The Herta.
The Herta will reportedly be featured in the first banner cycle, which is expected to arrive in mid-January. Lore-wise, The Herta will be a new five-star version of the well-known four-star unit simply named Herta. Aglaea is expected to appear in the second part of the update, which is set to launch around February 7. All these leaks should still be taken with a grain of salt, and players will need to wait for the next Honkai: Star Rail Special Program for 3.0 to confirm these details.
