Honkai Star Rail Version 1.2 update: Leaks, banners, more

The Honkai Star Rail 1.2 update may be a while away, but that hasn’t stopped a number of leaks from revealing some juicy details. So, here’s everything we currently know about the upcoming update.

While Honkai Star Rail players are currently gearing up for the Version 1.1 update, that hasn’t stopped a flood of leaks from cropping up online. In fact, details about Lynx, Yukong, Ruan Mei, and more have been revealed ahead of their official release date.

However, many Trailblazers will also be wondering what characters and content will be added in the Honkai Star Rail 1.2 update. Of course, it’s still early days and information is rather scarce, but we’ve covered all the details we currently have for the game’s next patch.

Is there a Honkai Star Rail 1.2 release date?

No, HoYoverse has yet to release information about the 1.2 release date. However, with Version 1.1 expected to launch around June 7, we could see a 1.2 release sometime in July 2023. It’s important to note, that HoYoverse’s other gacha game, Genshin Impact, releases updates every six weeks.

While Honkai Star Rail may ditch this patch schedule, it wouldn’t be unfair to speculate that HoYoverse would use a similar release cycle. Of course, we’ll be sure to update this section as soon as we hear more information.

HoYoverse officially revealed the drip marketing for both Blade and Kafka on their official Twitter. While both of these characters have not been confirmed, we know the developers often like to release marketing materials surrounding upcoming characters.

However, popular leaker Dimbreath has further claimed that both Blade and Kafka will feature in version 1.2. In fact, he has also provided leaked information regarding the order of the banners. According to Dimbreath, version 1.2 will have the banners in the following order:

Phase 1: Blade (5-star Wind Destruction)

Phase 2: Kafka (5-star Lightning Nihility) and Luka (4-star Nihility)

Honaki Star Rail’s 1.1 update will also see the release of Loucha and Silver Wolf, which means both Blade and Kafka could be present in the next update. One renowned leaker has also stated that the 4-star Physical character, Luka, will also be joining Blade and Kafka.

According to the official Twitter post, Blade is a swordsman who “abandoned his body to become a Blade.” The character “possesses a terrifying self-healing ability” alongside powerful offensive attacks.

Meanwhile, Kafka is a member of the Stellaron Hunters – a mysterious organization that collects Stellarons. Little is known about this mysterious woman, aside from her being one of Elio’s most trusted members.

We currently don’t have any information on their skills and abilities, but HoYoverse will likely release more information as we get closer to the 1.2 release date. For now, though, that’s everything we know about the Honkai Star Rail 1.2 update.

Honkai Star Rail Version 1.2 Relics

Honkai Star Rail leakers have provided a lot of information on the content that will arrive in version 1.2. This includes a bunch of brand new Relics and Planar Ornaments.

The two Relic sets that are expected to arrive in Version 1.2 are Longevous Discipline and Messenger Traversing Hackerspace. The two Planar Ornament sets are Broken Keen and Rutilant Arena.

The set bonus for Longevous Discipline is provided below:

2-piece bonus: Max HP is increased

4-piece bonus: Once the wearer gets hits or consumes their own HP their CRIT Rate is increased for a set number of turns.

The set bonus for Messenger Traversing Hackerspace is provided below:

2-piece bonus: SPD of the character is increased

4-piece bonus: Once the wearer uses their Ultimate on an ally, the SPD of all allies is enhanced for a set number of turns.

The Ornament set Broken Keen increases the Effect RES by a certain amount. Apart from that, if the wearer’s Effect RES is above a certain amount then the overall ATK of the party is enhanced.

Lastly, the set Rutilant Arena enhances the CRIT Rate of the wearer and also enhances their ATK and Skil DMG once the former crosses a certain threshold.

The exact numbers from these sets and Relics are still unknown.
