Honkai: Star Rail Gets ‘Eye Comfort Mode’ for Seele’s Ultimate

Back in May 2023, HoYoVerse noted it would release an option to turn down the flashing elements in Seele’s Ultimate in Honkai: Star Rail. There was no launch date for the feature at the time. Now the company confirmed Eye Comfort Mode will appear alongside other adjustments in the Honkai: Star Rail 1.2 update on July 19, 2023.

The option to adjust the flashing lights in Seele’s Ultimate in Honkai: Star Rail will be in the Settings section. Once you update the game to 1.2 and log in, you can go there via the phone. The example screenshot makes it seem like it tones down the brightness of the attack. The announcement didn’t mention if any other Honkai: Star Rail characters’ abilities are affected by turning Eye Comfort Mode.

The other additions adjust events and the messaging system. The Simulated Universe Planar Fissure event will now offer 12 double rewards. Chat Box and Messages can be customized if you get items like the Where’s the Rabbit Message and Chat Box item from events. When you are in a fight, you can see which objectives you need to complete for bonuses in a UI update. That appears in the upper right corner. Finally, people can go through Joint Forces Stages for Bailu, Bronya, Clara, Gepard, Himeko, and Welt to test them out.

Honkai: Star Rail is available for PCs and mobile devices, and a PS5 version will arrive in 2023. The 1.2 update arrives on July 19, 2023.
