HoYoverse is coming fast and hard to dry out our bank accounts, revealing three new characters coming to Honkai: Star Rail in Version 1.1. Version 1.0 has yet to release its second featured 5-star character of the patch, the Electric Erudition character Jing Yuan. That being said, if the General of the Cloud Knights doesn’t necessarily interest you, you’ll have plenty of time to save for the new characters coming in Version 1.1. These characters are the 5-star Silver Wolf and Luocha and the 4-star character Yukong.
Silver Wolf is a 5-star Quantum Nihility character and has the ability to add a weakness to enemy targets of the same type as a random ally. Additionally, Silver Wolf can Entangle enemies, which delays the action of their moves. Meanwhile, Luocha is a 5-star Imaginary Abundance character with the ability to remove enemy buffs and heal allies. This would make Luocha the third primary healer of the game, which makes him a great pick if you do not have two already.

Meanwhile, not much is known about Yukong’s kit, aside from her 4-star standing and her Imaginary-typing. Some leaks have indicated that Yukong can increase the ATK and Crit Rate of her allies, which may make her an important buffer for future teams. Additionally, there’s no information about which banner Yukong will be featured in or the order of Character Event Warp banners in regards to Silver Wolf and Luocha.
The release date for Version 1.1 of Honkai: Star Rail has not yet been officially revealed. However, like with Genshin Impact, versions tend to begin and end with the end date of the second Character Event Warp banner. With this in mind, we can predict that Version 1.1 of Honkai: Star Rail will release around June 7. Honkai: Star Rail is available via its official website.
