Honkai Star Rail Leaks: New Character Form Sheds Hope For Future Updates

A new leak has emerged, hinting at what may be a new form for a classic character, and that sheds hope for future updates on other characters. At the moment, HoYoverse’s turn-based RPG is in the midst of Version 2.7 and preparing for the release of Version 3.0, an update that will initiate the game’s third year of content and introduce players to Amphoreus, a brand-new destination.

Honkai: Star Rail is home to many DPS units across its various Paths, but some have held up better than others as the game moves to its next world.

Based on the leak, it seems like the rumored version of Dan Heng will be an entirely new playable unit, much like Imbibitor Lunae is to Dan Heng rather than a swappable Path to the likes of March 7th (Hunt), for example. If this
