Summary

• A leak suggests Honkai: Star Rail Version 3.1 will include a free 4-star character selector, offering players a choice of four units.
• The leaked selector options are Qingque, Pela, Serval, and Asta. This event is likely time-limited.
• Recent Honkai: Star Rail updates have focused on 5-star characters, resulting in fewer new 4-star additions.

Exciting news for Honkai: Star Rail players! A recent leak reveals Version 3.1 will feature a free 4-star character selector, potentially as part of a limited-time event. With Version 3.0 on the horizon, bringing a wave of new content and characters, this selector offers a valuable opportunity to bolster your roster.

Currently, Honkai: Star Rail boasts 23 4-star characters. While not all are meta-defining, several prove incredibly useful in specific team compositions. Newer additions like Moze and Gallagher have quickly gained popularity for their versatility. However, maximizing their potential often requires significant investment in Eidolon levels. Previous updates, such as Versions 2.1 and 2.7, offered free character selectors, simplifying Eidolon acquisition. This Version 3.1 leak suggests a similar event, providing a choice between four characters.

According to prominent leaker HomDGCat, the selector will allow players to choose between Qingque, Pela, Serval, and Asta. The leak indicates a time-limited event, mirroring previous patches. Interestingly, all four characters debuted in Version 1.0, with Asta even being gifted early in the game. Prior rumors suggested upcoming characters would all be 5-star, lending credence to the idea that fewer new 4-star units are planned in the near future.

Honkai: Star Rail Leak Teases New 4-Star Character Selector in Version 3.1

• Qingque: Quantum, Erudition
• Pela: Ice, Nihility
• Serval: Lightning, Erudition
• Asta: Fire, Harmony

While Pela and Asta maintain their usefulness as supports, Qingque and Serval have been somewhat overshadowed by newer DPS characters. It's also worth noting that all four are available for purchase in the in-game store. Since the release of Penacony, many players have observed a trend towards more 5-star character releases. With nearly 40 5-star characters already available, the disparity between the two rarities is significant. Eight more 5-star characters are anticipated with Amphoreus, with the possibility of two additional 5-stars from the upcoming Honkai: Star Rail x Fate/Stay Night crossover.

During Version 2.0, only four new 4-star characters were introduced (including March 7th's alternate form). The pattern for future updates remains unclear. However, if this leak proves accurate, future 4-star character selectors might lack sufficient new unit options. Despite this, players eagerly anticipate Version 3.0, featuring the highly anticipated characters The Herta and Aglaea. To aid players in preparing for these new additions, Honkai: Star Rail recently released new redeem codes offering free Stellar Jades and materials.
