Summary
- Version 2.1 leaks of Honkai: Star Rail reveal Aventurine as a new challenging boss, offering a different combat experience for players.
- Expect at least 8 obtainable characters in an event-exclusive selector during update 2.1, plus freebies to celebrate the game's anniversary.
- Players will need strong DPS characters and sustain-type units to defeat Aventurine in multiple phases, as leaks tease new content and features in version 2.1.
A Honkai: Star Rail leak showcases gameplay for Aventurine that players will encounter in version 2.1. Although Honkai: Star Rail is in version 2.0 at the moment, there are already leaks about the next version, which will supposedly offer freebies in celebration of the game's anniversary. It's being speculated that at least eight characters will be obtainable in an event-exclusive selector during update 2.1.
Version 2.1 of Honkai: Star Rail will introduce players to a new story boss, Aventurine, who shares nearly the same clothing style as his friendly version. Like previous character bosses in the game, this enigmatic adversary will redefine the Astral Express crew's journey and give players a challenging combat experience. As per some version 2.1 leaks, Honkai: Star Rail will go beyond introducing Aventurine as a boss and bring a new Type for Trailblazers. Not to mention, these leaks should never be taken so seriously, since they are always subject to change.
A new Honkai: Star Rail leak, shared on a Chinese Telegram channel, showed gameplay footage of Aventurine, giving players an idea of what to expect from the upcoming boss. From the looks of things, players will need a decent team that features at least one top-tier DPS character to defeat Aventurine. Considering the boss fight consists of multiple phases, Honkai: Star Rail players would be advised to use sustain-type units to increase the team's survivability.
When HoYoverse launched the official drip marketing campaign for Honkai: Star Rail's Aventurine, many fans expected him to become playable in the first phase of version 2.1. However, as it turned out, he will be first introduced as a story boss. After the events of the first portion of 2.1, Aventurine will receive his debut banner in the game.
Honkai: Star Rail Aventurine Could Appear at the Same Time as Gallagher
If early leaks are anything to go by, Aventurine will be featured in the same event-exclusive banner as Honkai: Star Rail's Gallagher. Besides, his signature weapon, Inherently Unjust Destiny, will allegedly be obtainable in the second phase of version 2.1, which will be released later this month.
As Honkai: Star Rail marches toward version 2.1, leaks regarding the upcoming content pop up daily. One piece of information obtained from these leaks suggests players will claim 20 free pulls, a commemorative profile icon, and other lucrative rewards on the anniversary. In addition to these freebies, Honkai: Star Rail version 2.1 will include a long-requested feature, which allows Trailblazers to obtain assignment rewards with one click.
