Did you have fun trailblazing through the Xianzhou Alliance in Honkai: Star Rail Version 1.1? Then you’ll be excited to hear that the next part of the story is going to have even higher stakes with HoYoverse introducing the upcoming Version 1.2 “Even Immortality Ends.”
The developers have revealed the exact time the Version 1.2 update goes live after the maintenance period. If you are a faithful Trailblazer like me, you would need to be prepared before diving into the game and exploring the new content.
Similar to how Version 1.1 introduced new characters like Silver Wolf, Luocha, and Yukong, the upcoming Version 1.2 update will also have new banners. The notorious Stellaron Hunter Blade and his Light Cone “The Unreachable Side” will be added, and after Clara and the Physical Trailblazer, he will be the next five-star character from the Destruction Path in the game.
As per the leaks so far, the second phase of the update will introduce the much anticipated and fan-favorite Kafka. She will be joined by Luka, and both of them will be from the Nihility Path.
The Version 1.2 update will also introduce lots of new content to keep players engaged in the game. As per the released trailer, Tales of the Fantastic, Simulated Universe: World 7, Underground Treasure Hunt, Where are you Mystery Trotter?, and Forgotten Hall’s The Voyage of Navis Astriger will be some of the new events added to Honkai: Star Rail.
How long is the Honkai: Star Rail maintenance?
According to HoYoverse, the maintenance period will be nearly five hours after which Trailblazers can log in to experience Version 1.2. The Version 1.1 update also followed a similar routine and it is highly likely that everything will go online much sooner if there aren’t any issues.
