The Honkai Star Rail 3.1 character announcement a.k.a drip marketing campaign is expected to begin on December 31, 2024. Since most of the Amphoreus characters are likely 5-star characters, HoYoverse will probably reveal two characters while the campaign is active. This means the developers will post two announcements over the course of two days. Hence, the drip marketing campaign will supposedly end on January 1st, 2025.

The two characters that will likely be revealed during the campaign are Mydei and Tribbie. They were showcased and officially unveiled as a part of the Amphoreus characters in the version 2.7 live broadcast.
