Honkai: Star Rail is sharing all the details for the newest permanent game mode coming to the sci-fi RPG in Version 3.6, featuring some of the game's strongest enemies. The massively popular RPG from HoYoverse has brought plenty of different ways for players to experience its endgame, with a wide variety of different game modes.

Now, Honkai: Star Rail is set to get yet another new game mode.
Honkai: Star Rail's Version 3.6 already looks to be an exciting patch for fans of the sci-fi RPG, with some particularly notable additions coming during the update. Version 3.6 will welcome alternate versions of two of the game's starter characters, with Evernight arriving as a five-star variant of March 7th and Permansor Terrae as a new version of Dan Heng. The update will also welcome another re-run of one of Amphoreus' most popular characters, with The Herta featured on the limited gacha banner for a third time.

Honkai: Star Rail is showing off a wide array of quality-of-life updates set to arrive to the game with the upcoming Version 3.5 update.
A new update from HoYoverse is providing more details about the upcoming "Anomaly Arbitration" game mode in Version 3.6. Anomaly Arbitration will task players with building three different teams to use within the game mode, pitting players against powerful enemies with their own unique traits.

Anomaly Arbitration is set to release with Version 3.6 on September 23.
