During the Version 2.0 special program of Honkai: Star Rail, HoYoVerse revealed some more information on the new characters who’ll debut in this update. We previously learned that Black Swan, Sparkle, and Misha will be the new units, and Dan Heng Imbibitor Lunae and Jing Yuan will return.
Black Swan will be a five-star Wind Nihility character who specializes in DoT. She is the first character from the Garden of Recollection faction. She can inflict the Arcana debuff on enemies, which can stack. It will deal damage over time, meaning her gameplay will focus on inflicting as many Arcana stacks as possible.Â
Sparkle will be a five-star Quantum Harmony character. She is a follower of Aha and she is a hedonist. Her Ultimate can restore Skill Points to the whole party. As well, she can let them deal more damage when they use Skill Points. The special program hinted that this kit will make her a very good support for Dan Heng Imbibitor Lunae and Qingque, since both characters tend to eat through your SP.
Misha will be a four-star Ice Destruction character. He is the doorman of the Reverie Hotel, making him a native of Penacony. He fights using items like mop and suitcases. The more SP you use, the more damage he can deal. His Talent can also stop enemies in their tracks, making it easier for you to avoid contact or hit them.
Black Swan and Misha will be in the first phase, and Sparkle will be in the second. You’ll also be able to pull for their signature Light Cones. Dan Heng Imbibitor Lunae will also re-run in the first phase, whereas Jing Yuan will return in the second phase.
Honkai: Star Rail is readily available on the PS5, Windows PC, and mobile devices. Version 2.0 of Honkai: Star Rail will come out on
