Honkai: Star Rail Leak: Free 4-Star Character Selector in Version 3.1

Summary

• A leak suggests that Honkai: Star Rail Version 3.1 will include a free 4-star character selector, featuring four units to choose from.
• The leaked event allows players to select from Qingque, Pela, Serval, or Asta during a limited-time event.
• Honkai: Star Rail has been focusing more on 5-star characters, resulting in fewer new 4-star units.

A recent leak has revealed exciting news for Honkai: Star Rail fans: Version 3.1 will introduce a free 4-star character selector as part of a limited-time event. As Honkai: Star Rail approaches its 3.0 cycle, players can look forward to new gameplay features and characters.

Currently, Honkai: Star Rail boasts 23 4-star characters, and while not all are top-tier in the meta, several are valuable additions to various team compositions. Recent 4-star releases like Moze and Gallagher have garnered significant popularity due to their versatility. However, to reach their full potential, these characters often require higher Eidolon levels. In previous updates such as Versions 2.1 and 2.7, Honkai: Star Rail offered free character selectors that facilitated easy collection of these Eidolons. According to the latest leak about Version 3.1, this popular event is set to return, allowing players to choose from four specific units.

The leak, shared by the well-known community leaker HomDGCat, indicates that the free 4-star character selector in Version 3.1 will include Qingque, Pela, Serval, and Asta. This event is expected to be time-limited, similar to previous iterations. All the characters available in the selector were introduced during the game's 1.0 cycle, with Asta being a character that players receive early in the game for free. Recent rumors suggest that future character releases may focus solely on 5-star units, which could mean fewer new 4-star characters from Amphoreus in the near future.

Honkai: Star Rail Leak Teases New 4-Star Character Selector in Version 3.1

• Qingque: Quantum, Erudition
• Pela: Ice, Nihility
• Serval: Lightning, Erudition
• Asta: Fire, Harmony

Although Pela and Asta continue to serve as reliable support characters, Qingque and Serval have been outshined by newer DPS options. It's worth noting that all these characters are also available for purchase in the in-game store. Since the introduction of Penacony, the game has shifted towards releasing more 5-star characters, with nearly 40 five-star units currently available. Eight more 5-star characters are expected to debut with Amphoreus, and a rumored crossover with Fate/Stay Night may add two more.

In the 2.0 cycle, only four new 4-star characters were introduced, including an alternate form of March 7th. It remains to be seen whether Amphoreus will continue this trend, but if the leaks are accurate, future 4-star character selectors might struggle to offer fresh options. Nevertheless, players should be excited about the upcoming Version 3.0, which will introduce the highly anticipated The Herta and Aglaea. To prepare for these new additions, Honkai: Star Rail has recently released new redeem codes for free Stellar Jades and materials.
