Honkai Star Rail is set to be released alongside several brand-new features and a few changes. Most of these features are considered QoL (Quality of Life) as they make players’ experience fairly easy and simple. The features are listed in the following section:

  • Claim all and re-dispatch button for Assignments
  • Light Cone Lock Management tool
  • Increased Relic storage
  • Light Cone EXP optimizations

Along with these changes, players can filter through Paths when searching for a Light Cone in their inventory. With the use of the Light Cone Lock Management tool, they will be able to lock and unlock 4-star or rarer Light Cones in batches while salvaging them for EXP materials. Trailblazers will also be able to unlock multiple copies of Light Cones when Superimposing.

In Honkai Star Rail 2.1, the maximum Relic cap is increased to 2000, allowing players to store more Relics as the title’s character roster increases with each patch. The Simulated Universe is also getting a change revolving around its rewards system. Now players will obtain all first-time clear rewards after completing the hardest challenge. A new World will also be added to the Simulated Universe featuring two fresh Planar Ornament sets.

A brand-new stage of Crimson Calyx: Bud of Abundance, Crimson Calyx: Bud of Preservation, and Stagnant Shadow: Shape of Ire will also be made available to the players in Honkai Star Rail 2.1.

Since the first anniversary events will be celebrated during the upcoming update, the Oneiric Shard top-ups will be refreshed. Hence, those who have purchased a Oneiric Shard top-up will be able to get bonus shards with their first purchase again. Along with the limited-time banners of Acheron and Luocha, the Nameless Honor battle pass will be refreshed.

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed an issue where the 5-star Light Cone, Earthly Escapade (Harmony), would not grant the user an extra stack of Radiant Flame when Hanya’s Trace Netherworld triggers its effects to replenish a Skill point.
  • Fixed an issue where, if several characters are equipped with the Earthly Escapade (Harmony) Light Cone, and one of the users' "Mask" durations expires, the other user's "Mask" effect will cease to provide CRIT Rate and CRIT DMG to allies.
  • Fixed an issue where the Memory Zone Meme “Allseer” attacks in an abnormal direction.
  • Fixed a bug in which Stellaron Hunter: Sam's ability SGE: Molten Core's Combustion of Allies' Skill Points did not go away when the latter was Weakness Broken and defeated.

Adjustments and Optimizations

  • Adjusted the default ally target selection logic for Sparkle’s skill when manually engaged in a battle.
  • Adjusted the character portrait background coloring for Aregnti, Clara, Huohuo, and Hanya. This adjustment will not affect the characters' ultimate abilities.
  • Adjusted the text for Ultimate buffs of Luocha (Eidolon 1) and Hanya (Eidolon 6). The text will now show “ATK Boost” and will not affect the abilities’ performance.
  • Adjusted the combat difficulty level with enemy Bronya during the Trailblaze Mission “Jarilo-VI – You Can Run, But You Can't Hide.”
  • Optimized some image icons for the PS5™ version of Honkai Star Rail.
