Honkai: Star Rail also marks the beginning of a new series that HoyoVerse will develop, so the story is wholly independent from the other titles in the Honkai franchise. Using the Astral Express, players will travel to 'magnificent new worlds and make new interesting companions, work together to solve disputes revolving around the Stellaron', and 'depart on new adventures deep into the galaxy', said HoYoverse.

Honkai: Star Rail tells a story of an adventure through the galaxy and travels to unknown stars,' HoYoverse said. ' To venture towards the stellaris is a classic theme of the Sci-Fi genre. If it wasn't already obvious from its title, for this game we’re going to space! On a train! HoYoverse hopes to bring the Honkai series to all-new heights in Honkai: Star Rail by being literally out of this world. Meanwhile, non-playable characters from Honkai Impact 3rd like Sushang and Welt Yang will be stepping into the spotlight as playable characters in Honkai: Star Rail.īut appreciation of this new title won’t be exclusive to veteran Honkai Impact 3rd players. One of the ways HoYoverse will continue the spirit of Honkai Impact 3rd in Honkai: Star Rail is by having past characters appear in the new game.įor example, in the closed beta, familiar faces like Murata Himeko and Seele Vollerei appear with new identities.

'Meanwhile, and more importantly, the gameplay and story of Honkai: Star Rail is independent of the other titles from the Honkai series.' 'Honkai: Star Rail will continue to incorporate the consistent spiritual core of the Honkai series, showing the symbiosis and confrontation between human beings and destiny,' HoYoverse told Yahoo Gaming SEA in an email interview. Thus, the developer started the exploration and development of its newest title in the hopes of continuing the spirit of the Honkai series in a new lens. But while they hope to continue to develop the core of the Honkai franchise - 'the symbiosis and confrontation between human beings and destiny', according to HoYoverse - they also hope to bring a refreshing gaming experience to players with Honkai: Star Rail.
