Honkai Star Rail 3.5 Update, Marketing Schedule, New Characters and More

Image via: HoYoverse As the highly-anticipated Version 3.5 update for Honkai: Star Rail approaches, preparations among the player base are reaching a fever pitch. With leaks stirring excitement and speculation and the drip marketing campaign awaiting its opening act, HoYoverse appears all set to keep the slow and steady stream of fresh content coming. Let's take a look at what fans can expect with Version 3.5. Two New Faces: Hysilens and Cerydra Leaked information reveals that Version 3.5 is bringing two new playable characters into the mix for the further dimension of the already colourful world that is Honkai: Star Rail. Hysilens has been a name uttered in community circles for a few months now. Should the leaks remain true, she will at last be playable, classified as a Physical Nihility character, with a unique "maid" design standing alone visually. The theme that contrasts: a frail-looking character with horrendous debuffing combat style might prove an incredible layer to the current meta. Along with her, Cerydra is rumoured to be a Wind Harmony unit that is support based and has a youthful "girl-next-door" design. While Wind units generally bring strong utility and speedy support, Cerydra might prove a good synergy option for teams that are keen on turn manipulation. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Direct Shopping From Adidas Franchise to 50% off Adidas Buy Now Undo HSR NEWEST UPDATED BANNERS ROADMAP 3.5 - 3.8 | Honkai Star Rail, Cyrene, Cerydra HSR, Hysilens, HSR Amphoreus: The Gift That Keeps on Giving Introduced earlier this year, Amphoreus' new world continues to enrich the game's lore and roster. Phainon, Castorice, and Tribbie have already embedded themselves in various team compositions, while Hyacine and Anaxa step into the somewhat esoteric edge of play. The characters soon to follow will surely continue to keep the momentum of Amphoreus alive. If officially confirmed, Hysilens and Cerydra would be able to further cement the region's personality and freshness in terms of gameplay options for those wanting to experiment more with Nihility and Harmony team setups. Drip Marketing Schedule: What to Watch For The wait for official announcements will not be long as the beginning of drip marketing for Version 3.5, HoYoverse's usual teaser period for new characters, will start right after the second phase launch of Version 3.3.
