Honkai Star Rail celebrates 5 million pre-registrations with a free 4-star rarity character upon launch

Honkai Star Rail celebrates 5 million pre-registrations with a free 4-star rarity character upon launch

To celebrate the massive milestone of hitting over 5 million pre-registrations, the highly anticipated sci-fi followup to Genshin Impact, Honkai Star Rail, is celebrating by providing all who pre-registered and future pre-registrations with a free 4-star rarity character. This milestone hardly comes as a shock given just how big this game has become, and it’s very likely the most anticipated mobile release this year, now with even more reason to give it a look!

In case you somehow haven’t heard of it, Honkai Star Rail is the new title from the developers of the extremely successful Genshin Impact, HoYoVerse. While this is less of a sequel to Genshin and more related to HoYoVerse’s other super-successful franchise, Honkai Impact, it’s still clear that a lot of what made Genshin so big is present within Star Rail.

From the similar anime art style to the open-world ideas, Star Rail seeks to capitalise on the love for Genshin but transport the setting to less of a high fantasy deal and more of the science fiction style. From gigantic spaceships to mechanical weapons and characters with robot arms, as well as the spacefaring adventure that is the main point of the story, you’ll be amongst the stars rather than among the fantastical semi-medieval world that Genshin is based in.

And now, with this celebration of this huge milestone, if you throw in your pre-registered interest, you’ll receive a free high-rarity character, Serval, upon the game’s launch. This is likely to save you a decent amount of time in the game having a powerful character right away, so be sure to give it a look before the game launches later this year!

If you’re looking to do so, you can pre-register for the game ahead of time at either of the links below this article!
