Honkai Star Rail 3.1 drip marketing reveal has been highly awaited and new leaks have sparked speculation about the release date, upcoming characters, and banners. Let’s break everything down and make sure you’re caught up on all the important details.
When Will Honkai Star Rail 3.1 Drip Marketing Start?
Drip marketing is how HoYoverse builds hype for new updates by slowly teasing information about characters and features. Instead of giving everything at once, they release small updates over time to keep players excited.
The Honkai Star Rail 3.1 drip marketing campaign is expected to begin on December 31, 2024. This is right after the second phase of Version 2.7 ends, which means players won’t have to wait long to see teasers for what’s coming next.
When Is HSR Version 3.1 Releasing?
The official launch for HSR Version 3.1 is rumored to be on February 25, 2025. This is when players can dive into the new content, banners, events, and more.
The update will likely introduce new characters tied to the recently revealed Amphoreus region, continuing the exciting storyline.
New Characters in HSR 3.1 Update
The leaks suggest that two new characters from Amphoreus—Tribbie and Mydei—will be announced during the HSR 3.1 drip marketing campaign. These two were briefly teased in earlier updates, and fans have been eager to learn more about them.
- Tribbie is expected to be a unique addition with a design that ties deeply into Amphoreus’s lore.
- Mydei could bring a fresh perspective to the story, possibly acting as a key figure in the region’s unfolding narrative.
While we don’t have details on their elements or paths just yet, these two characters are generating a lot of excitement in the community.
Leaked Honkai Star Rail 3.1 Banner Schedule
In addition to drip marketing, the leaks have hinted at two major character banners for Version 3.1:
- Phase 1 (February 25, 2025):
The first banner will reportedly feature Tibao aka Tribbie, a Quantum element character who follows the Path of Harmony. As a Harmony character, Tibao will likely focus on supporting teammates while offering unique buffs. If true, she’ll be the ninth Quantum character in the game, which makes her quite rare. - Phase 2 (March 17, 2025):
The second banner is expected to introduce Wandi aka Mydei, an Imaginary element character who follows the Path of Destruction. Wandi is said to be the 11th Imaginary character, and his Path suggests he’ll excel at dealing heavy damage.
It’s worth noting that these names—Tibao and Wandi—are based on Chinese leaks and Tribbie and Mydei could be the official English translations.
Well, Version 3.1 feels like a major turning point for Honkai Star Rail. The drip marketing campaign will not only showcase the new characters but also tie them to the evolving story of Amphoreus.
With both Tribbie and Mydei expected to take central roles in the update, fans are eager to see how they connect to the game’s lore and gameplay. Moreover, drip marketing isn’t just about teasing new characters—it helps players plan. Knowing who’s coming next means you can start saving your Stellar Jades for your favorite characters.
So, keep an eye out for official drip marketing updates starting in late December, and get ready for some thrilling new content in February.
