Free-to-play colossus Honkai: Star Rail is out now on PS5 following a hugely successful stint on mobile devices. From HoYoverse, the developer behind Genshin Impact, the turn-based RPG is another free-to-play romp, so we want to know if you've been tempted into giving it a try.
Our resident enthusiast (and closet weeb) Sammy Barker has been giving the game a good look on Sony's current-gen console — and we've been left quite impressed. «In some ways its bite-sized nature means it’s more at home on mobile, but its beautiful anime art style and stunning animations deserve to be experienced on a big screen,» we wrote in our Honkai: Star Rail PS5 review, awarding the title a 'great' 8/10. «This is a live service executed impeccably, and the truly exciting thing is that the best is yet to come,» we concluded.
