When the 3.8 update arrives for Honkai Impact 3rd, a Seele battlesuit called Herrscher of Rebirth will be among the additions. HoYoVerse shared a preview of new character. It goes over both decisions regarding her design, as well as some concepts for her attacks.
It begins by mentioning how Seele is an “innocent” character who wanted to “protect her friends.” However, she didn’t have the power. Due to breaking the Sea of Quanta’s barrier, she gained new strength. That’s when Seele gained the Herrscher of Rebirth power in Honkai Impact 3rd. The idea is that the team wanted to show how she’s independent and strong, She wields a scythe here, like when the Herrscher of Death or in Honkai: Star Rail. The team also decided to go with the concept where since she can create or make things wither, her innate nature would make her choose creation. As such, the moveset also involves “the character and summoned entities fighting together.”
Here’s the preview for the new Seele battlesuit. If you turn on closed captions, there’s an Engish translation.
Herrsher versions of characters aren’t uncommon in Honkai Impact 3rd. For example, in February 2023 the Herrscher of Finality and Herrscher of Origin battlesuits for Kiana and Mei appeared.
Honkai Impact 3rd is available for PCs and mobile devices, and the Seele Herrscher of Rebirth battlesuit arrives in the 6.8 update. 6.7 arrived at the end of June 2023 and added the Shigure Kira Sugary Starburst battlesuit.
