As we near the release of the highly anticipated Honkai Star Rail 2.0 update, fans are gearing up for all the exciting new banners that the next patch will bring to the turn-based action RPG title.
The current Honkai Star Rail version 1.6 also features some great banners for the game’s player base, but they will be coming to an end soon and will be replaced by new banners including some limited characters for the players to collect.
In this article, we’ll take a look at all the ongoing and upcoming banners in Honkai Star Rail, including the banners in the version 2.0 update. Without further ado, let’s check them out.
Honkai Star Rail: Current Banners
The first phase of Honkai Star Rail version 1.6 features the Ruan Mei and Blade banners that have been extremely popular within the community. However, these banners will come to a conclusion in only two weeks, which means that players may not have much time left to get their favorite characters before they’re replaced by the second phase banners.
Honkai Star Rail: Upcoming Banners
The second phase of Honkai Star Rail 1.6 will feature the Dr. Ratio and Kafka Limited Character Banners. These banners will be running from January 17, 2024, to February 7, 2024.
In Version 2.0, players can anticipate the arrival of three exciting playable characters: Black Swan, Sparkle, and Misha. Both Black Swan and Sparkle will be featured in their exclusive Limited Character Banners, while Misha will join one of these characters in their banner.
The official banners for the Honkai Star Rail version 2.0 update haven’t been confirmed by the devs at the time of writing. However, fans can expect Black Swan to be the first phase banner of the 2.0 update.
The first phase banner of Honkai Star Rail 2.0 is expected to run from February 7, 2024 to February 28, 2024.
The second phase banner of the update is likely to feature Sparkle along with Misha, with the banner running from February 28, 2024 to March 20, 2024.
