Summary
A newHonkai: Star Railleak teased the possible release date of new character Cyrene. The current story is centered around Amphoreus and the Chrysos Heirs, who are godlike heroes protecting the mysterious world, but Cyrene has not been formally introduced inHonkai: Star Railyet.
Not much is known about Cyrene inHonkai: Star Rail, except for her brief appearances in the short cinematic, “Amphoreus' Saga of Heroes,” and Phainon’s flashback at the end of the Version 3.0 story mission. It’s theorized that she is Phainon’s childhood friend from Aedes Elysiae, who was murdered before the events ofHonkai: Star Rail. Many fans also pointed out that Cyrene resembles Elysia fromHonkai Impact 3rd, possibly joining thelong list of crossover characters inHonkai: Star Rail’s roster.
While it’s been teased that the Chrysos Heirs will become playable throughout the duration of the Amphoreus arc, there’s no indication yet about Cyrene being playable. But a newleak from Uncle Jtt5CPWclaims that Cyrene will allegedly be the sole 5-star banner character inHonkai: Star RailVersion 3.7, which will land around December. It’s said that the character will be an Ice-type Remembrance character, similar to Trailblazer’s new form. No other details were revealed, and it’s still subject to change in the next few months.
Honkai: Star Rail’s Cyrene May Be the Last Amphoreus Character
Honkai: Star Raildevs previously shared that the Amphoreus arc would last until Version 3.7, making it the longest main story mission in the game so far. Considering that the eight known Chrysos Heirs might be released in pairs in the next few months, it’s possible that Cyrene might be the last Amphoreus character to be released, if the leak is reliable. The planet is isolated from the rest of the outside world, so it’s likely thatHonkai: Star Railmight not introduce non-Amphoreus charactersuntil the arc ends.
Meanwhile, manyHonkai: Star Railfans were skeptical of the leak, mostly because it’s still a while before Version 3.7 drops. Some also expressed disappointment about the fact that there’s no news yet aboutMarch 7th’s rumored 5-star form, and that they hope she would be an Ice-type Remembrance character too.
Given that Amphoreus has so much mystery surrounding it,Honkai: Star Railfans are definitely in for a ride as the story progresses. More Chrysos Heirs will likely be in the spotlight, especially withHonkai: Star Railalready releasing new characters like Castorice, Tribbie, and Mydei soon, which many players are looking forward to.
