Honkai Star Rail announced for PlayStation consoles
Does the planetary success Genshin Impact appeal to you? An action RPG that we owe to the Chinese studio MiHoYo, which has quickly established itself in the video game landscape. The developers will support it for as long as possible, but other than that, they have been working on a new Honkai Star Rail game. A sequel to Honkai Academy 2
and Honkai Impact 3rd planned for PlayStation, mobile and PC consoles.
As Genshin Impact, it’s a free-to-play action RPG with a very appealing cel shading if we believe the trailer below. The history ofHonkai StarRail will follow the journey of a hero or heroine aboard the Astral Express to discover the wonders of this universe to be explored and shed light on its mysteries.
Honkai: Star Rail offers you a world waiting to be discovered, where elements of mythology intertwine with a sci-fi story. Beings called “Aions” exist in the galaxy, incarnations of the universal principles who can move through the worlds at will, guided by their Primum Mobile. They are gods endowed with tremendous powers! The “Aion” that roam the worlds hold their beliefs, which explains the wide variety of civilizations that develop in every corner of this universe.
But among them rages the Aiôn of Destruction. He believes that the universe is just an illusory facade and that civilization is nothing short of a real cancer. It sows the seeds of devastation called “Stellarons” across the galaxy to bring about massive changes in ecosystems. As the protagonist, you find yourself at the beginning of this story with a Stellaron implanted in you. .

Honkai Star Rail opts for turn-based combat “terrible to master” :
Also, our turn-based combat system is easy to learn but daunting to master; So it’s perfect for testing your team building skills and getting ready for battle. If you manage to use each character’s abilities strategically, each will shine in their own way and be able to reach their full potential to help you in your mission.

During this sci-fi epic we will cross paths with other companions. Allies who, with their abilities, could be very useful for our mission. miHoYo Studio has confirmed that Honkai Star Rail will be available on April 26, 2023 for iOS, Android and PC (Steam, Epic Games Store). However, no release date or window on PlayStation consoles (PS5, PS4).
