Honkai: Star Rail 3.3 'The Fall at Dawn's Rise' Launches Soon

Excitement is building as HoYoverse prepares to launch *Honkai: Star Rail* Version 3.3 on May 21st. The new update, titled The Fall at Dawn’s Rise, marks the final chapter of the Flame-Chase Journey, where Trailblazers will join forces with the Chrysos Heirs for an epic confrontation against one of the most formidable foes yet — the Sky Titan, Aquila.

The Showdown with Aquila Begins

Aquila, a colossal bird adorned with countless eyes, holds dominion over the cycle of day and night through the movement of its eyelids. This climactic battle follows directly after the Chrysos Heirs successfully reclaimed the Coreflame of Death and Reason in the previous update. With tensions at their peak, players are now set to face Aquila head-on, bringing this intense narrative arc to a thrilling conclusion.

New Developments on Amphoreus

Meanwhile, on Amphoreus, local factions continue their pursuit of Era Nova while the galaxy's brightest minds observe from afar. Following the events of Version 3.2, Madam Herta’s data spirit has finally reached the Vortex of Genesis — and now, the results of that journey are beginning to unfold. As investigations deepen, players will uncover the hidden truths behind Amphoreus’s mysterious downfall.

New 5-Star Characters Arriving in Version 3.3

Version 3.3 also introduces two brand-new 5-star characters ready to join your roster:

• Hyacine – As the chief physician of Twilight Courtyard, Hyacine is driven by a noble vision: to immortalize ordinary people within the annals of history. On the battlefield, she serves as a Wind-elemental support character following the Path of Remembrance. Her abilities revolve around aiding her allies, and she even brings along a loyal companion named Little Ica, who automatically steps in to heal when teammates take damage or sacrifice HP.
• Cipher – A long-time ally of Aglaea and Tribbie during the Flame-Chase Journey, Cipher inherits the divine authority of Trickery. As a Quantum-elemental character on the Path of Nihility, she excels in tactical deception. Cipher specializes in attacking enemies with the highest Max HP and can dynamically switch targets mid-battle. Her Ultimate ability unleashes bonus True Damage based on all previously recorded punishment effects, making her a deadly force on the field.

Returning Favorites and Exciting New Events

In addition to new content, the Version 3.3 warp event will bring back two beloved 5-star characters: Herta and Aglaea. Herta returns in the first half of the event, followed by Aglaea in the second phase — both offering players a second chance to add them to their squads.

This update also features unexpected surprises such as the Penacony Speed Cup Spheroid Racing Tournament, where players can test their skills in high-speed Spheroid Racer competitions. Also making its official debut is Legend of the Galactic Baseballer: Demon King, which graduates from beta into full release.
