1. Sparxie
- Rarity: 5-star
- Path: Elation
- Element: Fire
- Release: 4.0
Sparxie is the first confirmed character for Honkai Star Rail 4.0 banner. She is either an alter ego of Sparkle or related to her. Sparxie will play a major role in Honkai Star Rail Planarcadia’s story. She is also one of the first Elation characters in Honkai Star Rail.
2. Yao Guang
- Rarity: 5-star
- Path: Elation
- Element: Physical
- Release: 4.0
Yao Guang has also been confirmed for Honkai Star Rail 4.0. She will be on the banners alongside Sparxie and will also be from the new Elation path. She is one of the seven Arbiter-Generals and is known as the Seer Strategist of Xianzhou. Yao Guang is also an Elation support, so she will be important for the Elation meta in 4.x.
3. La Mancha
- Rarity: 5-star
- Path: Hunt
- Element: Unknown
- Expected Release: 4.1
La Mancha is the leader of the Galaxy Rangers in Honkai Star Rail. Being the leader of Galaxy Rangers, we can at least confirm that La Mancha will follow the Hunt path. There is not much information about him so far, but he will appear in Honkai Star Rail 4.0 and has been leaked to be the sole 5-star character in version 4.1.
4. Pearl
- Rarity: 5-star
- Path: Unknown
- Element: Unknown
- Expected Release: 4.2
Pearl is one of the Ten Stonehearts, ranking as a P45 senior manager in the Strategic Investment Department of the IPC. Pearl was first revealed in the Stoneheart’s Oath Ring Myriad Celestia trailer, and she will also make an appearance in 4.0. Previously, Pearl was leaked for 4.1, but recent leaks are hinting at a 4.2 release instead.
5. Elation Silver Wolf
- Rarity: 5-star
- Path: Elation
- Element: Unknown
- Expected Release: 4.2
Silver Wolf is our beloved member in the Stellaron Hunters. She will be a big part of the Planarcadia storyline, even getting a completely new playable form. Recent leaks almost confirm her new playable form to follow the path of Elation. If true, Silver Wolf will likely have an incident with Aha in Planarcadia, which will lead her down this eccentric path.
6. Yae Sakura
- Rarity: 5-star
- Path: Unknown
- Element: Ice
- Expected Release: 4.3
Yae Sakura is expected to be the highlight of Honkai Star Rail 4.x. Although she has not been announced by Hoyoverse yet, all the leaks hint her to hold similar importance as Firefly did in Penacony. Yae Sakura is a Honkai Impact 3rd character, so her official name for Honkai Star Rail may be changed slightly. Until we get more trustworthy leaks around her name, we have decided to keep it as Yae Sakura for now.
7. Blade’s New Form
- Rarity: 5-star
- Path: Unknown
- Element: Ice
- Expected Release: 4.3
Blade, the broody Stellaron Hunter we all came to like in the Xianzhou arc, will also get a new form in 4.x. His new form’s element has been leaked to be Ice, and we can expect him to be released in either Honkai Star Rail 4.3 or 4.4.
8. Himeko’s New Form
- Rarity: 5-star
- Path: Unknown
- Element: Fire
- Expected Release: 4.4
Finally, Himeko will also have a new form in Honkai Star Rail 4.x. She is the most important character in the Astral Express, but her current kit doesn’t do her justice at all. With Himeko finally getting a new form that is deserving of her calibre, we can finally see her lead the Astral Express in the fight against the Destruction.
Other than these characters, we also have rumors about Robin and Aventurine’s new forms. But this information came from questionable leaks, so we have only decided to make a small number of them here. Once more information, we will start adding them to the main list.
So, that’s everything we currently know about all the upcoming Honkai Star Rail 4.x Planarcadia characters. Tell us about your opinion on the characters for HSR 4.x in the comment section.
