Honkai Impact 3rd's Sun-Soaked January Update: Reign Solaris and More!

Honkai Impact 3rd kicks off the new year with its "In Search of the Sun" update, arriving January 9th. This update brings a wealth of new content, headlined by Durandal's exciting new battlesuit: Reign Solaris.

Reign Solaris, a Physical DMG dealer of the IMG type, presents a more agile and nimble Durandal. Players can switch between two modes: Rampager, focusing on powerful charged attacks, and Skyrider, enabling swift battlefield maneuvers. Durandal's signature weapons, Valorous Effulgence and its PRI-ARM variant, Valorous Effulgence: New Voyage, will also be available.

Beyond the new battlesuit, the storyline expands with "Bouquets of Unfulfilled Wishes." The Dreamseeker and her companion return to the Mars system, continuing their investigation into the Ten Shus war. This chapter promises thrilling action and emotional depth, including a new minigame, "On-Duty Work Guide," challenging players to solve puzzles by manipulating Cube-ianka on a 3D grid.

Generous Rewards and New Events:

Players can earn a share of 60,000,000 Crystals by completing main story chapters (from a shared pool – so act fast!). The update also introduces the "Countdown: To Sweet Dreams" event, offering a more relaxed experience compared to the main storyline. This event features familiar characters like Mei, Theresa, and Fu Hua, a unique boss encounter, and a monster-trainer-style command system. Rewards include Crystals, Source Prisms, and Senadina's new outfit, "Steering Inequations." Consult our Honkai Impact tier list to optimize your team composition!
