We have a lot of Honkai Star Rail 2.7 events in the pipeline, and the first will begin on December 4, 2024.
The Honkai Star Rail 2.7 update is arriving on December 4, 2024, and it’s packed with fun stuff for players. This update, called A New Venture on the Eighth Dawn, brings a bunch of new events, characters, and rewards. Let’s break down all the Honkai Star Rail 2.7 events and the dates of when they will begin.
Honkai Star Rail 2.7 Events: Wrap Banners
The Big Picture
First up, there’s a new story mission called the Trailblaze Mission. It wraps up some unfinished business in Penacony before the Astral Express moves on to a place called The Dreamscape. This will be the main story update for this patch, so players who love the narrative will be diving right in after the update launches.
Now, here’s the exciting part: the events! These events in the HSR 2.7 update give you Stellar Jades, which are like shiny gems you can use to summon new characters. There are also free characters, costumes, and even some cool in-game decor to grab.
HSR 2.7 Event Warp: Phase 1
The first HSR 2.7 banner (that’s where you can get new characters) features Sunday, a new 5-star Imaginary character following the Harmony Path. The rerun banner brings back Jing Yuan, a lightning user. Alongside them, there are three 4-star characters:
- Arlan (Lightning)
- Qingque (Quantum)
- Tingyun (Lightning)
The Light Cones (special weapons) for this phase include A Grounded Ascent, Before Dawn, and a few others.
HSR 2.7 Event Warp: Phase 2
In the second phase, we get another 5-star character called Fugue. She’s a Fire user also from the Harmony Path. Fugue will be joined by Firefly, another key character in this phase. The supporting 4-star characters are:
- Gallagher (Fire)
- Misha (Ice)
- Yukong (Imaginary)
Light Cones in this phase include A Grounded Ascent and Before Dawn, similar to Phase 1.
Honkai Star Rail 2.7 Events: Main Events and Rewards
The Main Event: Cosmic Home Decor
This one’s like playing interior designer. You get to decorate the Trailblazer’s room in the Astral Express. And guess what? You earn all sorts of rewards while doing it, like Stellar Jades (super valuable!), a chef outfit for Pom Pom (adorable!), and even a cool phone wallpaper.
It runs from December 4 to January 13, so there’s plenty of time to make your room look fabulous.
Photography Fun
From December 25 to January 6, there’s the Between the Frames event. Imagine becoming a photographer, clicking themed pictures for a school exhibition. And for your hard work, you get more Stellar Jades, Tracks of Destiny, and other cool stuff.
Recurring Events
If you log in regularly during the Gift of Odyssey event (December 25 to January 14), you can grab 10 free Star Rail Special Passes—no strings attached. It’s like getting free tickets to a show!
There’s more! Realm of the Strange and Planar Fissure events are back, offering double drops on Relics and Planar Ornaments. These are like extra bonuses for playing the game.
A Special Treat: Express Gift
This is a free giveaway where you can choose a permanent 5-star character just by logging in. It starts on December 4 and lasts until the end of version 3.2. You can pick from characters like Himeko, Welt, Bronya, and more.
Well, the HSR 2.7 update isn’t just about events—it’s also about making the game better. The Astral Express gets a new area called the Party Car, and there’s a customizable room for you to personalize. They’re even reducing the game’s file size, so your phone won’t feel like it’s carrying a heavy backpack.
Overall, Honkai Star Rail 2.7 is shaping up to be a blast, especially for those who love collecting new characters and diving into events.
