How to Take Photos in Honkai: Star Rail

Like in Genshin Impact, you can take photos of characters and scenery in Honkai: Star Rail. While photographs in the game might not be as extravagant as the ones in Genshin Impact due to the lack of co-op and limited actions you can take on the field, you can nonetheless preserve memories of your Trailblazing adventures with the Camera.

Here’s how to take photos in Honkai: Star Rail.

There is no in-game item that you have to obtain in order to take pictures. The Camera is a default app that comes with your smartphone in the main menu. You simply need to open it up and select the Camera option, and then you can take as many photos as you wish. The photos you take with the in-game Camera automatically goes into the Screenshots folder in your Program Files, but you can also adjust this in the Settings if you want them to be somewhere more easily accessible.

As of the time of writing, there are multiple ways to customize your photo. Aside from being able to apply filters after taking a picture, you can also choose which expression or idle animation you want your character to make. If you want to take a picture from your character’s point-of-view, you can turn your camera as well to do so. In the hands of a creative mind, the possibilities of photo mode are endless in Honkai: Star Rail.

Honkai: Star Rail is readily available on mobile devices and Windows PCs.
