Upcoming Release: Honkai: Star Rail Update 3.4
Fans of Honkai: Star Rail can mark their calendars for July 2, 2025, the official release date for Update 3.4. However, the much-anticipated Fate/stay Night crossover event won’t kick off immediately with the patch. Instead, players will have to wait until July 11, 2025, for this special event to begin. The crossover will span almost three versions and conclude with the arrival of patch 3.7.
New Characters and Gameplay Features
During the crossover, players will encounter iconic characters from Fate/stay Night, specifically the five-star Servants Saber and Archer. Saber is classified as a Destruction character who harnesses Wind damage through her signature move, Excalibur. Her unique Core Resonance ability enables her to attack again while also replenishing Ultimate Energy. Archer, on the other hand, embodies the Hunt character archetype, dealing Quantum damage and possessing a special Circuit Connection state that allows him to indefinitely use his Skill until Skill Points are depleted. Both Saber’s and Archer’s Light Cones will be available in this update.
Event Details and Narrative
The event is set in the Penacony area, where players will step into the shoes of their Trailblazer avatars to participate in a narrative intertwined with Sweet Dreams and the Holy Grail War. Familiar faces from history will appear, including Aventurine, Boothill, and Robin as additional Masters, enriching the storyline. Notably, Lancer will not be playable, though the character will still contribute to the unfolding adventure.
Continuation of Current Storylines
Alongside the new crossover, Update 3.4 will continue the exhilarating Amphoreus storyline, leading players to the climactic Vortex of Genesis to place a Coreflame. Initially, players can look forward to banners featuring Phainon, Tribbie, Sunday, and Sparkle. The second phase of this update will showcase Firefly, Blade, and Jingliu, both of whom will receive enhancements. Additionally, a stylish new costume called Spring Missive will be available for Firefly, further expanding customization options.
