Please be advised: All information shared here stems from unofficial leaks and is highly subject to change. Final confirmation rests with HoYoverse’s official announcements.

Trailblazers, prepare for an exciting journey through the cosmos as new leaks offer a tantalizing preview of Honkai: Star Rail versions 3.7 to 4.0! While all information from leaks is subject to change until HoYoverse’s official announcements, these glimpses into upcoming Character Event Warps and fresh faces are certainly stirring up the hype.

HSR Version 3.7 Character Leak: Cyrene (Path of Memory)

Get ready to meet Cyrene, an intriguing new character rumored for Version 3.7. She’s slated as a versatile Support/Utility unit following the Path of Memory, bringing a unique dual-form combat mechanic to the battlefield.

Dual-Form Mechanics & Abilities:

• Form 1: “Passive Memory” (Defensive/Sustenance Focus)
  • Skill: “Echo Shield” – Grants a shield to an ally that absorbs DMG, converting a portion of it into “Memory Fragment” stacks.
  • Ultimate: “Recall” – Consumes “Memory Fragment” stacks to restore HP to all allies and remove negative effects (debuffs).
• Form 2: “Active Memory” (Offensive/Enhancement Focus)
  • Skill: “Fragmented Echo” – Consumes “Memory Fragment” stacks to inflict the “Fractured” state on a single enemy, causing them to receive increased DMG from ally attacks.
  • Ultimate: “Replay” – Mimics the last action (Skill or attack) performed by a targeted ally, replicating its effects against enemies (e.g., copying a DPS ally’s powerful attack).

Visual Design & Lore Notes:

Visually, Cyrene is described with ethereal Memosprite companions – small, pink-hued winged entities. Her own design features two distinct appearances, with one notable form depicting her barefoot, adorned with a floral crown and wings, wielding a bow and arrow. Her domain, the realm of Memory, also reportedly shares aesthetic similarities with Robin’s Memory Bubble Character Portrait, and her visual connection to the leaked Special Passenger (SP) March 7th is noted as intentional, hinting at deeper narrative connections.

HSR 3.8 Banner Leaks: Constance

Constance is hinted as a potential addition in Version 3.8, with speculation pointing to two distinct Path possibilities for her kit:

• The Harmony Path (Fire Support Focus): In this role, Constance would function as a Fire DMG-focused Support, specializing in amplifying Burn team compositions by buffing ATK/SPD and enhancing Burn-centric synergies.
• The Memory Path (New Path Speculation): If she pioneers this path in 3.8, Constance could introduce a unique “Scorched Memory” playstyle, focusing on DoT (Damage over Time) and delayed burst damage mechanics.

Speculation: Constance is a Cremator

Lore speculation surrounding Constance has intensified. Her unexplained ability to insert herself into Acheron’s music box memory in the 2.1 story, combined with Boothill’s description of his “Memokeeper informant” in 2.2, has led many to believe that Constance is not merely a “Memokeeper” but a Cremator. Boothill’s informant described as appearing and disappearing face-to-face and knowing Acheron is a Nihility Emanator, details that do not align with Black Swan, strongly suggest Constance. Furthermore, descriptions of Cremators in the Simulated Universe as a “Lady with a gray-matter-esque complexion” and “a colorful flame” appearing when her eyes open seem to align with Constance’s enigmatic presence.

HSR 4.0 Banner Leaks

Version 4.0 is set to take us to Edo Star, Huohuo’s homeworld, depicted as a dreamlike planet in her “A Ghostly Hug” PV. Credible leaks suggest Sparkle also originates from Edo Star. The only currently confirmed elements for Version 4.0 are the debut of Yae Sakura, the exploration of Edo Star, and significant involvement from the Stellaron Hunters.

Speculation: Brand-New SP Appearance for Sparkle?

Given Edo Star is Sparkle’s hometown, there’s strong speculation that she will debut in a brand-new SP appearance in Version 4.0. Many believe this will be the adorable JK schoolgirl design previously showcased in her PV!

HSR 4.0 New Path: Elation

With our impending expedition to Edo Star, the hometown of Sparkle and a realm governed by the Aeon of Elation, leaks suggest the Path of Elation will become playable. Characters expected to embody this Path include:

• Yae Sakura (Ice Elation)
• Sparkle (in her SP variant)
• Sampo (in a 5-star SP variant)

It’s highly probable that one of these three will emerge as an Emanator of Elation, destined to become a flagship character in future narratives.

Other HSR New/Future Characters

• Lancer: According to Seelee leaks, Lancer is a standard NPC, possibly located next to the Glory Geail.
• Screwllum is coming soon?! A popular NPC since Version 1.1, player demand for Screwllum to become playable has been consistently strong. Recent leaks suggest the genius mechanic will indeed debut as a playable unit in upcoming versions, making a reunion with him potentially imminent!
