The Genius Society is ready to appear in Honkai Star Rail because we have a date for the 1.6 Special Program. The upcoming showcase might have the official reveals for new characters and some events, as usual. And, according to the latest information, Herta and Screwllum will appear as hosts of this show. If leaks are true, this might be the last version before we jump to Penacony next year. However, this comes from leaks and speculation. Still, it is an important show, and any game fan should do their best to catch it.
Honkai Star Rail 1.6 Special Program Premieres on December 15
On December 15, at 19:30 (UTC+8), players can see the new live stream from the developers that’ll bring several new things to this gacha title. If this show is anything like the past ones, we might get three new character reveals. Past Special Programs have revealed two 5-star characters and a 4-star one; hopefully, that’ll be the case for this one, too. Besides that, we imagine HoYoverse will continue with its trend of doing reruns now that the game’s been out for almost a year and there are many 5-star characters.
If you haven’t played the game, now’s the perfect chance. Honkai Star Rail won the Best Mobile Game award during The Game Awards 2023, and the developers gifted everyone 1,600 Stellar Jade, which equals 10 pulls on any of the banners. Plus, the Foxian Tale of the Haunted event is still happening, and you can get many rewards, from currency for pulls to ascension materials.
Also, a new trailer was unveiled during the latest awards ceremony, showcasing Acheron, one of the possible future characters coming to the game. And, if this title isn’t your cup of tea, HoYoverse is already cooking a lot of things for Zenless Zone Zero, so whether you like turn-based RPGs or action-focused ones, HoYoverse has a game for everyone. In the meantime, remember to mark your calendar for the 1.6 Special Program’s date of Honkai Star Rail, and let’s hope we get something good for the year’s final weeks.
