Honkai: Star Rail 3.4 launches with Fate collab next month

• Honkai: Star Rail Version 3.4 is launching soon on July 2nd with major new content.
• The update features a highly anticipated collaboration with an iconic anime franchise.
• Fate/Stay Night, one of history's most beloved anime series, comes to Honkai: Star Rail!

While preparing to open their Berlin café, MiHoYo continues delivering impressive updates for their popular games. Honkai: Star Rail Version 3.4 arrives July 2nd, bringing not just new content but an epic crossover with a legendary anime series.

Version 3.4 "For the Sun is Set to Die" introduces Phainon as a playable character. Players following recent storylines will recognize his importance to the Trailblazer's journey, now joining the active roster.

Phainon brings unique combat mechanics centered around Coreflames - a special resource that powers his Ultimate ability. When fully charged, he transforms to create a Territory, temporarily replacing allies while maintaining their buffs in his enhanced battle form.

While these updates excite Honkai veterans, the real headline is the Fate/Stay Night crossover launching July 11th. Two iconic characters - Saber and Archer - will join the game during this limited-time event.

All players can claim the five-star Archer character simply by logging in during the event, making this collaboration valuable even for players unfamiliar with Fate/Stay Night's lore.
