Honkai: Star Rail is following a tight patch and character release schedule to keep players interested, and Livestream Announcements are part of this schedule.
The developer, HoYoverse, follows a tradition of hosting livestreams to reveal content being released with the next update, similar to Genshin Impact’s Announcement Program Livestreams.
In the livestreams, the developer brings several voice actors—shown in their character’s animated models—and they talk about the update and what it’s going to bring.
They also feature generous Stellar Jade codes that will only remain available for a short while (from 12 to 24 hours), to encourage Honkai players to watch them. Here’s when the next Livestream Announcement for Honkai: Star Rail will air.
When will the next Honkai: Star Rail Livestream Announcement start?
The next Livestream Announcement to introduce the upcoming Honkai: Star Rail update will be hosted on July 8 at 6:30am CT.
It’s set to reveal the main additions brought with Patch 1.2, which is expected to release in June. The stream will available on the game’s official YouTube channel.
The promotional art for the Special Program confirmed Kafka and Blade are the next characters in line to join Honkai‘s roster. They will successively join the Warp events in Patch 1.2’s both Phases.
What’s unclear about the next patch is whether players will be able to experience more of Honkai’s main story. Since the game’s launch in May, no new quests have been released, while Patch 1.1 focused more on Companion Quests and a few events.
It was a light update, which means we can expect this Special Program to reveal more ambitious content coming to the game soon.
There’s a chance the broadcast might reveal some unexpected events that will offer more ways for players to experience combat in Honkai, as well as earn Stellar Jade and XP materials.
