Honkai: Star Rail Gameplay Video Focuses on Kafka

As usual, HoYoVerse shared a new Honkai: Star Rail gameplay video, with Kafka being the star this time. This is part of the “Keeping up with Star Rail” series. This means Owlbert and either the character in question or someone close to them introduce the new playable cast member. In this case, Himeko’s English voice actress Cia Court appears in-character to discuss the Stellaron Hunter.

As a five-star, Lightning, Nihility character, Kafka will focus on things like status effects. Her normal attack deals lightning damage to one foe. Her Caressing Moonlight skill hits one target and deals splash damage to those adjacent to it and causes any DOT it is suffering to deal damage again. The Gentle, but Cruel Talent follows allies’ basic attacks with lightning attacks and perhaps shock. The Mercy is Not Forgiveness technique deals damage to all enemies and may shock enemies. Her Ultimate Twilight Trill damages every enemy, may shock them, and deals more damage to enemies already shocked.

Here’s the full “Keeping up with Star Rail — Kafka: Elegance Unmasked” video

These features are a regular fixture for Honkai: Star Rail new characters. Ahead of Blade’s official debut, “Owlbert” hosted a similar video focusing on his capabilities. It’s unknown if we’ll also see one for Luka, the new four-star character debuting on Kafka’s banner.

Honkai: Star Rail is available for PCs and mobile devices. A PS5 version will arrive in 2023. The Honkai: Star Rail Kafka banner begins on August 9, 2023.
