New Honkai: Star Rail Characters for 2.0 and Beyond Teased

As part of the 1.6 Honkai: Star Rail Special Program, characters who will appear on Penacony in 2.0 and beyond appeared. Sunday, the leader of the area, teased them with portraits during an “interview” with Owlbert.

This portion of the Special Program began with Sunday confirming his sister, the famous singer Robin, would appear on Penacony during the storyline and celebration. Misha, who was already teased on social media as possibly being a 2.0 launch character, came up during this segment. The Iris family member Firefly will show up. So will Gallagher, who is a Bloodhound family member and will handle security. Sunday also noted that the Annihilation Gang member Duke Inferno will appear, as will the Stellaron Hunter Sam.

Here’s a gallery showing all of the portraits for upcoming characters appearing in Honkai: Star Rail after 2.0. As a reminder, beyond knowing Misha will show up when 2.0 launches, we don’t know which patch other characters will debut in.

After showing off the portraits for upcoming characters, Sunday confirmed the Penacony “guest list” of people invited to the celebration that is cause for the planet opening up to outsiders. This also included a look at a few characters who aren’t available yet, like the IPC character Aventurine. The others included the Astral Express’ Himeko, the Intelligensia Guild’s Dr. Ratio, the Garden of Recollection’s Black Swan, the Masked Fools’ Sparkle, and the Galaxy Rangers’ Acheron.

In case you missed the showcase, here’s the 1.6 Special Program.

Honkai: Star Rail is available for the PS5, PC, and mobile devices.
