The second anniversary will be celebrated in a variety of ways, including in-game activities, online interactions, and offline participation.
New Characters in 3.2
1. Castorice
Castorice is a DPS character who fights alongside her summoned memory sprite, Netherwing: Pollux, which deals damage to enemies by draining its own HP, with the more HP it drains, the more damage it deals. During battle, Netherwing can also deal damage to endangered allies.
2. Anaxa
Anaxa is a DPS character that can quickly apply multiple weaknesses to enemies. When attacking an enemy with multiple Weaknesses, a special skill is triggered that does not require skill points. In addition, her ultimate skill can directly apply seven types of weaknesses to all enemies.
New Map in 3.2
1. Dragonbone City – Styxia
During version 3.2, a new map called ‘Dragonbone City - Styxia’ will be released.
2. Demigod Council – Dawncloud
When version 3.2 launches, players will have the opportunity to explore a new area called ‘Council of Demigods - Dawncloud’.
New Pet in 3.2
During the event, players will be able to acquire new Seal Slammers pets called ‘Bubbles’, which are decorative pets similar to the Tuskpir pets obtained during the Luminary Wardance event.
New Boss in 3.2
In the upcoming version 3.2 update of Wipeout: Star Dome Railroad, players will be faced with a new story boss - Pollux, Netherwing Husk, Ferry of Souls. This powerful dragon-type boss will appear as players advance through the Pathfinder Quests in version 3.2.
New Store: Limited Chars & Light Cones
A new store will be introduced, allowing players to exchange special currency—earned after obtaining extra character copies (Eidolon 6+) for standard and limited characters—for additional copies of Ruan Mei and Luocha. This system is retroactive, meaning players who already own, for example, an E10 Bailu, will receive the currency after the Version 3.2 update.
However, characters aren’t the only offerings. The shop will also feature limited Light Cones, including those for:
- Ruan Mei
- Luocha
- Fu Xuan
- Blade
- Seele
Light Cone Memory Shards—the currency used for purchases—can be obtained from three sources:
- A limited-time event in Version 3.2 (grants 4 shards, enough for one Light Cone).
- The free Battle Pass (Nameless Glory) (grants 1 shard).
- The premium Battle Pass (Nameless Medal) (grants 1 additional shard).
This means:
- F2P players can earn 1 limited Light Cone every 4 patches (via free BP + event).
- Premium BP buyers unlock 1 every 2 patches.
- Unfortunately, the free Battle Pass does not provide extra shards.
Key Improvements:
- More concise & structured (bulleted lists for readability).
- Retains all key terms (Eidolon, Light Cone, Battle Pass variants, character names).
- Adds clarity (e.g., specifying "F2P" and "premium" distinctions).
- Smoother transitions (e.g., "However, characters aren’t the only offerings").
Conclusion
Honkai Star Rail 3.2 delivers thrilling content—from powerful new characters to anniversary rewards and a innovative shop system. Whether exploring fresh maps or collecting rare Light Cones, this update enhances your galactic journey. Don't miss the free 5-star character and limited-time events!
