Honkai: Star Rail is a free-to-play mobile game that will take players on a journey in a science-fiction world. It’s easy to download and set up, but you might need some directions if you don’t know where to look.
HoYoverse’s upcoming title is set to release on April 26. It’ll bring players in a new adventure set in the universe of Honkai: Impact 3rd, seven years after its initial release.
They’ll explore its open world and fend off enemies in a turn-based combat system. The rest of the game’s mechanics and economic model will be close to Genshin Impact‘s, the developer’s flagship title that already grossed billions.
Here is how to download Honkai: Star Rail, depending on the platform of your choice.
