HoYoverse announced the Honkai Star Rail 1.6 banners in the RPG’s latest livestream along with plenty about what to expect in the next update – and there’s quite a bit. The next major story update is still over the horizon, but while we wait, HoYoverse is cooking up an animal nurture event – using the term “animal” loosely – and a new Echo of War boss fight, among other things. The battle system gets even more complex with the introduction of two characters who ignore enemy toughness, and two old favorites return for another round of banners.

Honkai Star Rail 1.6 goes live on Dec. 27, 2023, and lasts for the usual six weeks.
