Boothill is a cyborg cowboy who is a member of the Galaxy Rangers. He is very flamboyant and brash, though he also has an optimistic personality. According to his text in his character teaser on Twitter (X), someone tampered with his Synesthesia Beacon, and we’re not able to hear what he’s actually saying. It seems that he is no longer able to swear, and everything comes out like “cutie” instead, as if he’s talking through a forum’s automated censors.

His English voice actor is Andrew Russell, his Japanese voice actor is Katsuyuki Konishi, and his Chinese voice actor is Peng Bo. Russell’s previous roles include Genta in the Detective Conan franchise and Akira Otoishi in JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure. Konishi’s prominent roles include Lloyd in Tales of Symphonia and Diavolo in JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure. As for Peng Bo, he voiced Zhongli in Genshin Impact and Welt in Honkai: Star Rail.

We already know that Aventurine, Acheron, and Gallagher will be the new character in Version 2.1. More information on their kits will appear in the special program, which will air on March 16, 2024. So far, Robin is the only other character we know will debut as a playable unit in Honkai: Star Rail Version 2.2. HoYoVerse will likely reveal the final new character, who will be a 4-star, soon.

Honkai: Star Rail is readily available on the PS5, Windows PC, and mobile devices.
