A recent leak regarding Honkai: Star Rail has ignited excitement among fans, shedding light on the Elements and Paths for the characters featured in the highly anticipated Fate/Stay Night collaboration. The action-packed sci-fi RPG by HoYoverse has successfully introduced numerous characters, continually expanding its roster and gameplay dynamics. With the launch of the fourth playable world, Amphoreus, introducing the new Remembrance Path, players can expect even more thrilling additions to emerge from beyond the game’s universe.
The collaboration with Fate/Stay Night, which was officially announced at Gamescom 2024, marks Honkai: Star Rail’s first major collaboration. Scheduled for release in 2025, this crossover is anticipated to launch alongside the Version 3.4 update, which is thought to occur in July. Recent leaks have further clarified the features of the new characters associated with this crossover event, generating significant buzz in the community.
Insights on the Fate Collaboration Characters
Honkai: Star Rail have been revealed. As per the leak, Saber will be a limited five-star character belonging to the Wind Destruction Path, while Archer will be featured as a limited five-star character in the Quantum element within the Hunt Path. Both characters will be obtainable through the gacha system, with Archer notably available as a complimentary reward for players during the event. Significantly, both figures will include Eidolons, offering players bonuses for acquiring multiple copies.
- Artoria Pendragon (Saber): Limited five-star Wind Destruction character available through the gacha, has Eidolons.
- Shirou Emiya (Archer): Limited five-star Quantum Hunt character available both through the gacha and as a free reward, features Eidolons.
This crossover marks a distinct evolution in HoYoverse’s approach to collaborations. In comparison, Genshin Impact previously introduced Aloy from Horizon Zero Dawn as a playable character, who was exclusively available as a free gift and did not feature in the gacha system, nor had any Constellations. In contrast, the Fate characters are poised to bring Eidolons into the gameplay, elevating their strategic significance in battles. The release is rumored to coincide with the Version 3.4 update.
As the anticipation builds for the Fate collaboration, Honkai: Star Rail is currently celebrating its second anniversary with Version 3.2, offering numerous rewards, including Star Rail Special Passes and Stellar Jades for participants. Additionally, the introduction of the “Star Rail WORLD”event signifies a new layer of engagement for players. Given the packed roadmap of content planned for its third year, Honkai: Star Rail is set for an exhilarating journey ahead with the upcoming crossover.
