HoYoverse has unveiled details for Honkai: Star Rail's Version 2.6 update, "Annals of Pinecany's Mappou Age," launching October 23rd. This update takes players to Penacony and its vibrant Paperfold University, celebrating its anniversary with a bustling campus atmosphere filled with club activities, music, and academic events.
The Spotlight: Rappa
The update's star is the new 5-star character, Rappa, a Galaxy Ranger who also identifies as a ninja. Her gameplay features "ninjutsu," incorporating ninja mantras, scrolls, graffiti, and even rap. Rappa's quest involves hunting down the villainous Evil Ninja Osaru. Her ultimate attack, Sealform Ningu: Demonbane Petalblade, offers a unique first-person perspective, allowing players to slice through foes and significantly reduce their Toughness.
