Honkai: Star Rail Version 2.7: "A New Venture on the Eighth Dawn" Arrives December 4th

Honkai: Star Rail's Version 2.7 update, titled "A New Venture on the Eighth Dawn," launches on mobile devices December 4th. This update serves as the concluding chapter before the Astral Express journeys to the enigmatic Amphoreus, the Eternal Land.

Final Preparations in Penacony

Version 2.7 wraps up the Penacony storyline. Following Black Swan's suggestion, the crew prepares for their departure to Amphoreus, a location shrouded in mystery. While Miss Himeko gathers intelligence on their next destination, the crew bids farewell to Penacony, reconnecting with old friends and sharing poignant moments. This culminates in a memorable performance at the Grand Theater featuring the debut of two new characters: Sunday and Fugue.

Sunday, the former head of the Oak Family, aided by the mischievous Pepeshi, Wonweek, delivers a dazzling final act. As a 5-star Imaginary character, his Ultimate ability focuses on energy regeneration, bestowing the "Beatified" buff upon a teammate and their summon.

Fugue, previously known as Tingyun, makes her appearance after the harrowing events of Version 1.2. Having narrowly escaped death, she owes her survival to Madam Ruan Mei of the Genius Society. Fugue is a 5-star Fire character specializing in dismantling enemy defenses. Her Ultimate unleashes a fiery assault, obliterating enemy Toughness and inflicting substantial Fire DMG.
