The much-anticipated new RPG from HoYoverse (of Genshin Impact fame) is out now! You can head online to download and play Honkai Star Rail right now on the platform of your choice thanks to us finally reaching its release date.
A departure from Genshin Impact, HoYoverse's new game is a more traditional RPG with turn-based tactical battles and everything. Elements of the open-world gameplay remain along with dungeon exploration, but the whole thing will likely be more linear.
Expect the development team to support this free-to-play game for the foreseeable future, too. If it's anything as popular as Genshin was, expect it to be inundated with updates, events, and new playable characters for a good number of years.
Read on to find out everything there is to know about Honkai Star Rail, including its release date, consoles and platform availability, how to download, and to watch a trailer.
The Honkai Star Rail release date was 26th April, 2023. That's right – the full game is available to download and play right now here in the UK!
Before the full version of the game was released, we were treated to three closed betas. The final closed beta was held on 10th February 2023. With over 10 million pre-registrations for the full game, it's safe to say these closed beta periods were popular.
