Honkai: Star Rail Version 2.6: Annals of Pinecany's Mappou Age Arrives October 23rd

HoYoverse has unveiled details for Honkai: Star Rail's version 2.6 update, "Annals of Pinecany's Mappou Age," launching October 23rd. This update transports players to Penacony and its vibrant Paperfold University, celebrating its anniversary with a flurry of student activities, club recruitment drives, and academic events.

The Spotlight: Rappa

The update's highlight is the new 5-star character, Rappa, a Galaxy Ranger who also identifies as a ninja. Her gameplay incorporates ninjutsu, mantras, scrolls, graffiti, and even rap. Rappa's mission is to hunt down the villainous Evil Ninja Osaru, utilizing her unique ultimate attack, Sealform Ningu: Demonbane Petalblade, which features a first-person perspective, allowing players to slice through enemies and significantly reduce their Toughness.

Honkai: Star Rail Version 2.6 Events

• Sound Hunt Ninjutsu Inscription: This event casts players as band managers for the Dreamlight Anniversary music party, collaborating with Rappa to deliver an unforgettable performance.

• Warp Event Returns: Limited 5-star characters Dan Heng • Imbibitor Lunae, Acheron, and Aventurine will return in the warp event during both halves of the update.

Simulated Universe Expansion

The Simulated Universe receives a substantial expansion in version 2.6. Following the success of Swarm Disaster and Gold and Gears, the third DLC, "The Unknowable Domain," introduces a massive void connected to post-Second Emperor's War conflicts among scholars vying for control of the Scepter system – a powerful external thinking unit composed of inorganic bionic neurons. Players must collect Scepters, upgrade them with Components, and leverage powerful synergies to defeat a challenging final boss.
