August 2024 is gearing up to be a busy month for Honkai Star Rail fans as the game has many events and updates that you can look forward to this month. So buckle up, get your Honkai top up, and continue reading as we’ll discuss all the events and occasions that are planned for Honkai Star Rail this month.
4) Events
What most fans are probably most excited about, apart from the Honkai Star Rail account for sale, are all the limited-time events that are scheduled in August. Until now patch 2.4 has been really great and exciting to play on but it is long overdue for some events to provide a fresh experience to all Honkai Star Players. While the flagship event which is the Saga of Primaveral Blade is already underway, you can also play the Operation Memoria Snapshot till 19 August 2024. This means Trailblazers have a great chance of earning some cool rewards for their photography skills.
Apart from that, here are some upcoming events you can look forward to in August:
● Trailblaze: Friendship is Magic! (August 21)
● Garden of Plenty (August 14)
● Planar Fissure (August 30)
3) New Banners
I am sure all Honkai Star players love it when new characters get introduced in the game and also get a chance to grab other rare characters much more easily. The first banner phase of Honkai Star Rail patch 2.4 is already live where you have a golden opportunity to get your hands on Yunli, a 5 star character with a Physical element. You also have a chance to get Huohuo as the rerun was opened alongside this new release.
That said, you can expend a new banner to launch globally on 21 August 2024 that will bring Jiaoqin to the playable cast of characters. For those who don’t know, Jiaoqin is a Fire-type Nihility unit that pairs up well with Acheron in HSR. Apart from Jiaoqin, here are the other characters you can get when you roll for him:
● Arlan (4 star)
● Guinaifen (4 star)
● Hook (4-star)
2) Patch 2.5 Sneakpeak
As I mentioned earlier, patch 2.4 has been out for some time and the game is definitely overdue a new update. That said, you don’t have to wait long as the official livestream for showcasing patch 2.5 is not far off as it is nearing its global premiere. If past trends are any indication, the patch 2.5 special program should commence on August 30.
In this livestream we are expected to finally see:
● Official gameplay for Feixiao, Lingsha, and Moze, who are new characters.
● Announcements for a new Trailblazer event
● Showcase of new enemies, areas or bosses.
1) Gamescom Offical Exhibition
Fans of Honkai Star Rail will definitely have their eyes on the official exhibition of the game being displayed on Gamescom between August 21 and 25. Why is this a noteworthy event? I am glad you asked as in this event viewers will glimpses of future updates through trailers and other announcements so you better not miss out.
