While the crew of the Astral Express is braving the heartfelt and uplifting story that is Penacony, Dan Heng and the denizens of Xianzhou Luofu are celebrating the Lunar New Year. Trailblazers’ favorite partners in spirit-capturing, Sushang and Guinaifen, lead this show. Check out the special animated short “Harmony Greets the New Year” to celebrate with the cast of Honkai Star Rail!
“A new year dawns and prosperity beckons. In a certain corner of the Exalting Sanctum, Master Gongshu and his two assistants are consumed by preparations for the Xianzhou’s New Year performance.”
Among the simple folk enjoying Lil’ Gui’s and Sushang’s performance, keen-eyed viewers might notice almost all playable Luofu characters. The only three excluded individuals are Jingliu, Luocha, and Tingyun, and for a very good reason. Check out gallery below, showing off the moments with Dan Heng & Yanqing, Yukong, Fu Xuan, Jing Yuan, Huohuo and everyone’s favorite gambling gremlin Qingque. Even sisters Hanya and Xueyi made their appearance while Bailu managed to sneak out to attend to the festivities!
Honkai: Star Rail just kicked off Version 2.0, adding a brand-new planet Penacony with its Trailblaze quest chain, new playable characters Black Swan and Misha, and so much more.
