You’ll be able to watch it from the game’s official YouTube and Twitch accounts. It’ll start from 5 PM PT/8 PM ET on February 5, 2024. However, it’s unknown what the special program will cover, since HoYoVerse already detailed what will be new in 2.0. Many people in the replies have also expressed curiosity and confusion, wondering what it could be. Some others have guessed that there might be a live music performance.

Honkai: Star Rail Version 2.0 will be the debut of Penacony, the next destination for the Astral Express. There will be new boss fights—including one against Stellaron Hunter Sam—and QoL changes such as an updated Relic and Support Character system. New characters will appear in the gacha as well. 5-star Black Swan and 4-star Misha will appear in the first phase of the game, and Sparkle will appear in the second. Jing Yuan and Dan Heng Imbibitor Lunae will make their returns as well.

Honkai: Star Rail is readily available for the PS5, Windows PC, and mobile devices. Version 2.0 of Honkai: Star Rail will go live on February 6, 2024.
