A Honkai: Star Rail leak is teasing a brand-new event coming to the game with the Version 2.5 update later this year, potentially featuring a tournament against other characters. The addition of Penacony to the popular sci-fi RPG has already introduced a plethora of unique events for players to challenge. Version 2.1's "Tides of War" introduced a fighting game-like challenge to the RPG, while Cosmodyssey brought a unique board game-styled mini-game. Now, a newly leaked event could be teasing a tournament challenge against the game's playable characters.
While Honkai: Star Rail's Version 2.5 is still several months away, the game's upcoming patches have seen plenty of teasers about future content. Version 2.3 is expected to bring a new variant of the Simulated Universe called "Divergent Universe," alongside the release of Firefly and Jade. Version 2.4 has also seen leaks about its character lineup, with Jiaoqiu and Screwllum set to star as the update's featured characters. Now, leaks are hinting at a major new event coming with Version 2.5.
Honkai: Star Rail Leak Hints at "Tournament" Event
A recent update shared by prominent Honkai: Star Rail leaker Firefly Lover is hinting at a new event coming in Honkai: Star Rail's Version 2.5. According to the post, the event will be a "tournament mode" involving the player "dueling" against other characters, with few details given about the event's gameplay. The post does suggest that players may end up battling against other playable characters during the event, with Kafka, Topaz, and Aventurine mentioned as potential inclusions. The leak also hints at "unusual combinations" within the event, like Topaz and Cocolia on a team together.
While the Version 2.5 event leak did not offer many specifics, it would be far from the first time Honkai: Star Rail players have battled against its roster members. Honkai: Star Rail features several members of its playable cast as in-game bosses, including Kafka, Yanqing, and Argenti among others. Many of Honkai: Star Rail's playable bosses are also seen within the Simulated Universe, acting as the final boss for its different worlds. Honkai: Star Rail's Version 2.5 is currently expected to be released in September.
Honkai: Star Rail's newest event comes as early information is already beginning to surface about the next world players may be visiting within the game. A recent leak suggested four potential options for Honkai: Star Rail's next playable world, including the aquatic world of Lushaka and the planet of Melustanin, afflicted by the "Stellaron Disaster." Star Rail has also teased several other worlds in-game, including Silver Wolf's home world of Punklorde and more of the Xianzhou Alliance's ships. Honkai: Star Rail's universe looks ripe for expansion with plenty more expected to be on the way from the sci-fi RPG.
