It’s an exciting time for HoYoverse fans! Two major titles, Honkai: Star Rail (HSR) and Zenless Zone Zero (ZZZ), are entering crucial new phases with their latest updates. Let’s break down the characters and content waiting for us both in interstellar journeys and the perilous Hollows of New Eridu.

I. Honkai: Star Rail – Version 3.8 Phase 1

HSR Version 3.8 doesn’t bring a new story, region, or major system overhaul, but instead highlights key reruns and side events.
