Honkai: Star Rail Version 2.6: Annals of Pinecany's Mappou Age Arrives October 23rd

HoYoverse has unveiled details for Honkai: Star Rail's upcoming version 2.6 update, titled "Annals of Pinecany's Mappou Age," launching October 23rd. This update transports players to Penacony and its vibrant Paperfold University.

What's New?

Paperfold University celebrates its anniversary with a bustling campus atmosphere: student clubs are recruiting, music fills the air, and academic events are in full swing.

The spotlight shines on Rappa, the new 5-star Galaxy Ranger character who also identifies as a ninja. Her gameplay features "ninjutsu," ninja mantras, scrolls, graffiti, and rap. Rappa's quest involves hunting down the villainous Evil Ninja Osaru. Her ultimate attack, Sealform Ningu: Demonbane Petalblade, utilizes a first-person perspective, allowing players to decimate enemies and significantly reduce their Toughness.

Honkai: Star Rail Version 2.6 Events

The "Sound Hunt Ninjutsu Inscription" event tasks players with managing a band for the Dreamlight Anniversary music party, collaborating with Rappa for a spectacular performance.

Limited-time banner reruns feature the 5-star characters Dan Heng • Imbibitor Lunae, Acheron, and Aventurine during the update's first and second halves.

Honkai: Star Rail Version 2.6 also brings a major Simulated Universe update. Following the success of Swarm Disaster and Gold and Gears, the third DLC, "The Unknowable Domain," introduces a massive void connected to post-Second Emperor's War conflicts among scholars vying for control of the Scepter system – a powerful external thinking unit composed of inorganic bionic neurons. Players will gather Scepters, upgrade them using Components, and leverage synergistic abilities to defeat a challenging final boss.
