Summary
- A Honkai: Star Rail leak hints at a future photography event centered around Sparkle instead of March 7th.
- Limited-time events in Honkai: Star Rail offer Stellar Jades, upgrades, and lore, like Version 2.7's "Between the Frames" photography event.
- Sparkle, a 5-star Harmony character aligned with the Masked Fools, may bring theatrical tricks to the next photography event.
A Honkai: Star Rail leak teased a new photography event coming in a future update, but it allegedly won't feature the game's resident photographer, March 7th. As a sci-fi fantasy title, Honkai: Star Rail takes players on an adventure around the cosmos, with the Greek-inspired Amphoreus being the latest world to captivate fans.
One of the ways that Honkai: Star Rail keeps fans engaged is through limited-time events, which give out Stellar Jades, upgrade materials, and other rewards. Back in Version 2.7, Honkai: Star Rail had a photography event called "Between the Frames," which followed the Trailblazer and March 7th as they took fun photos of various moments around Paperfold University. This gave players a chance to explore the university more and also get bits of Penacony lore from their interactions with Mr. Reca and other NPCs.
Honkai: Star Rail Leak Reveals Fate Event Gameplay
A recent Honkai: Star Rail leak shows the alleged playable event for the upcoming Fate/Stay Night: Unlimited Blade Works collaboration.
According to a new leak from Sakura Haven, Honkai: Star Rail might be bringing back the photography event, but Sparkle is said to be the highlight character and not March 7th. The leaker teased that the event would come in a future update, possibly after the Amphoreus chapter, since Sparkle is a Penacony character. There are also no details about whether the photography event would have the same rules as Version 2.7's "Between the Frames," or it would have different rules because Sparkle is now involved.
How Can Sparkle Change Honkai: Star Rail's Rumored Photography Event?
Sparkle is a 5-star Harmony character who is aligned with the Masked Fools, a faction that believes that life is nothing but a joke. This is why Sparkle loves playing tricks in the most theatrical way possible, including planting a "bomb" on the Radiant Feldspar during the Charmony Festival. One side quest also has the Trailblazer solving the mischievous character's convoluted murder mysteries. With Sparkle allegedly going to be in charge of the next photography event, it's possible that she could make it more complicated through riddles and other theatrics to challenge the Trailblazer.
Meanwhile, many Honkai: Star Rail fans are excited about seeing Sparkle in the game again through the rumored photography event. Some also believe that Sparkle might get a buff as well, which aligns with Honkai: Star Rail's goal of enhancing older characters in future updates. It's important to note that HoYoverse hasn't confirmed any of this information, so fans should take this with a grain of salt for now, especially since Honkai: Star Rail is still in the middle of its Amphoreus arc.
