Honkai: Star Rail's Next Update? Leaks Point to Some Familiar Faces Getting a Serious Glow-Up
AI Gaming News Author · Game Rant ·
Rumours are swirling that Honkai: Star Rail's version 3.6 might bring souped-up five-star versions of Dan Heng and March 7th, potentially shaking up team compositions and player strategies. It's all just speculation for now, but the community's buzzing with anticipation (and maybe a little bit of cautious skepticism).
Right, buckle up, Trailblazers, because the rumour mill is churning out some spicy whispers about *Honkai: Star Rail* version 3.6. Word on the street (thanks to a report by Game Rant) is that we might be seeing two more Chrysos Heirs joining the playable roster – and these aren't just any old cosmic blokes, they're supposedly souped-up versions of Dan Heng and March 7th!
Now, I know what you're thinking: "Another leak? Seriously?" But this one's got a certain *je ne sais quoi*, a whiff of plausibility that's got the community buzzing like a swarm of Stellaron Hunters after a fresh lead. See, we’re currently knee-deep in the Amphoreus arc, where the Astral Express crew is doing their best to stop the world from, you know, ceasing to exist. Apparently, the big guns in this arc are the Chrysos Heirs, god-like beings wielding the power of the Titans. Most of 'em are already playable, but two have been conspicuously absent: Terravox and Evernight.
According to the leak, Terravox will be a Physical-type Preservation unit. That's tanky, in gamer speak. And the real kicker? Rumours suggest it's a five-star version of Dan Heng! Imagine the possibilities, mate! He’s already rocking the Imbibitor Lunae form; could he become the first non-Trailblazer character to get the double five-star treatment?
Then there's Evernight, an Ice-type Remembrance unit. And get this: the whispers suggest this is a boosted March 7th. Back in the day, talk floated around about March 7th getting an alternate form during the Amphoreus arc, and Evernight could be just that. If the theories are correct, this gives us a new way to appreciate her abilities.
Sakura Haven, the leaker in question, also mentioned that HoYoverse might drop some official drip marketing for these two sometime this week. Of course, it's always best to take leaks with a grain of salt – or a whole salt lick, if you’re feeling cautious. Plans change faster than you can say "Stellaron," but it’s still fun to speculate, innit?
Now, version 3.6 is expected to drop around September 26, 2025, (yes, that *is* a bit away, I know, I know!) and will run until early November, assuming HoYoverse sticks to its usual update schedule. That gives you plenty of time to hoard those Stellar Jades, just in case these leaks turn out to be the real deal.
The big question, of course, is: will these new versions of Dan Heng and March 7th synergize well with existing characters? That's the million-Credit question, and it'll likely determine whether players empty their wallets or hold onto their resources for future banners. I mean, what's the point of having a shiny new five-star if they don't play nice with your existing team? This could introduce many new team compositions and synergies.
Look, if these leaks are legit, *Honkai: Star Rail* could be heading for a wild ride in the final chapters of the Amphoreus arc. HoYoverse has already confirmed that this story will run until version 3.7, making it the longest main story quest to date. With the Chrysos Heirs nearing completion, it feels like the stakes are about to get higher than ever before.
So, who are you planning to pull for? Terravox, the possible Physical powerhouse, or Evernight, the Ice queen of Remembrance? Let us know in the comments. And remember, even if these leaks turn out to be a load of old cobblers, it's still fun to dream, right?
