Now that the Hyperion Lounge presentation finished, HoYoVerse confirmed the 8.2 Honkai Impact 3rd updaterelease date is April 24, 2025. It will include the Li Sushang Peregrine Sword Battlesuit, an Erdos Helia Valkyrie Boltstorm outfit to earn, and a major story chapter update.
The trailer and announcement for the 8.2 Honkai Impact 3rd update began with a peek at what’s to come in the story. There’ll be a major focus on both the player’s Dreamseeker avatar and Helia. As a reminder, Helia is a mysterious Valkyrie who happens to be one of the main characters in Part 2 of the game. It seems like we might get some answers about her identity in Part Main Story Chapter VIII: “Till the Long Road Reaches the Sky.”
We also know the Lu Sushang Battlesuit Peregrine Sword debuts in 8.2, and the Hyperion Lounge showcase and new trailer looked at her. This is an S-rank BIO type character who will deal Physical damage when she attacks with her fists, the sword hidden in her umbrella or her chicken companion. As such, she’ll use fist-type weapons in the game. She also has the Law of Ascension Astral Ring Specialization. The two new fists in this update, the five-star Jadeite Sleeves and six-star Jadeite Sleeves: Windward, are made with her in mind. The Newfound Joys Stigmata set also features her. She’ll also be the star of the Yunchin’s Culinary Wonders event, which includes Crystals, Source Prisms, a Stuffed Tummy emblem of Sushang’s chicken, and a Salted Plum outfit for the Helia Valkyrie Boltstorm Battlesuit as rewards.
Here’s the trailer going over the 8.2 Honkai Impact 3rd story, Battlesuit, and events.
And here’s the full 8.2 Hyperion Lounge that confirmed the release date for the next Honkai Impact 3rd update.
Prior to Li Sushang’s reappearance, we saw another Part 1 characters return. A Kiana Kaslana Battlesuit and Teresa Apocalypse AstralOp debuted in 8.1.
