The first Honkai Star Rail leak comes courtesy of HomDGCat, a reliable source. The post suggests that Kafka might receive a skin in the upcoming version 2.4 or 2.5 patch. If the leaks are accurate, Kafka would be the first Honkai Star Rail character to get a skin. If HoYoverse follows the same process to acquire the skin in-game, players will likely have to purchase it with Oneiric Shard.

To acquire Oreiric Shard, purchase the top-up bundles from the Oneiric Puch section in the in-game store. Depending on the skin’s price you have to purchase the bundle accordingly. Additionally, if you purchase the Oneiric Shard bundle for the first time, you will get a generous bonus, allowing you to save a bit of money.

According to the post, the character’s name is Hua Yexue, who will ikey be a 5-star character treading on The Hunt Path. Moreover, the character is expected to be wielding the Ice element. If this leak comes to be true, this character will be the second 5-star The Hunt unit wielding the Ice element.
