Key Facts

  • Honkai: Star Rail Ver.4.7 is scheduled for release on November 11, 2026.
  • Players who log in during Ver.4.7 can claim one free limited 5-star from Acheron, Dan Heng • Imbibitor Lunae, and Jing Yuan.
  • The chosen character comes with materials to raise them to level 60.
  • Fated Star Soul is a new strengthening system that adds new skills, animations, and a character-exclusive theme illustration for the three characters.
  • One Fated Star Soul of choice is free during Ver.4.7, with the remaining souls available through version events and planned to be exchangeable for Undying Starlight in future versions.

Logging in during the version lets players choose Acheron, Dan Heng • Imbibitor Lunae, or Jing Yuan, plus the materials to raise the pick to level 60. The same three characters get Fated Star Soul, a new strengthening system.

Ver.4.7 also hands out one Fated Star Soul of choice, the strengthening track built for exactly these three characters. Unlocking one adds new skills, new animations, and a character-exclusive theme illustration. The remaining souls are earned through Ver.4.7 events, and HoYoverse plans to make them exchangeable for Undying Starlight in later versions.

Each character's rework is specific. Acheron gains a follow-up attack and builds Slashed Dream while attacking, so her Ultimate comes up sooner. Dan Heng • Imbibitor Lunae also gains a follow-up attack and picks up extra Squama Sacrosancta as he deals damage. Jing Yuan's Lightning-Lord gets a higher maximum hit count and faster accumulation, and acts immediately once it hits the cap.

  • Acheron: New follow-up attack; builds Slashed Dream while attacking to reach her Ultimate faster
  • Dan Heng • Imbibitor Lunae: New follow-up attack; gains extra Squama Sacrosancta while dealing damage
  • Jing Yuan: Lightning-Lord's maximum hits and accumulation speed rise, and it acts immediately at max hits
