Recent leaks from Honkai: Star Rail are teasing some of the biggest push characters coming with the next world, including a new version of a popular pre-existing character.

Version 3.6 saw the release of two brand-new variants of past characters, introducing Evernight as a five-star version of March 7th and Permansor Terrae as a new Dan Heng variant.

Recent leaks from Honkai: Star Rail are providing early information about how Cyrene will play following her debut in the sci-fi RPG.

A new update shared by prominent HoYoverse leaker Anon Leaks is giving fans an early idea of who Edo Star's "push" characters will be. According to the post, the heavily-rumored Star Rail version of Yae Sakura will be one of Edo Star's most powerful characters, previously leaked to be an Ice unit in the new Elation Path. Himeko will also reportedly be receiving a new variant during the next world's cycle, said to similarly be one of the "push" characters for the world. Honkai: Star Rail's next new world is currently expected to launch sometime in early 2026.

The rumored "push" characters for Edo Star serve as two of the biggest leaked units from the sci-fi RPG's next exploreable world. Much like the previous world, Edo Star is expected to welcome the addition of a new variant for the Trailblazer, said to be an Elation unit similar to Amphoreus' variant debuting in the then-new Remembrance Path. Sparkle's association with the world as her home planet has also been connected with a new variant coming for Sparkle, following the Path of Elation instead of her previous Harmony alignment.
