Honkai: Star Rail surprise: Upcoming version 1.6 is giving away free five-star character Dr. Ratio

Honkai: Star Rail has revealed exciting news for Version 1.6, offering a complimentary five-star character. The last update of 2023 is set to launch this month, and recently, the Version 1.6 Special Program stream, "Crown of the Mundane and Divine," revealed numerous additions such as main story quests, limited-time events, and Simulated Universe modes.

The stream highlighted the abilities of five-star banner characters Ruan Mei and Dr. Ratio, along with four-star character Xueyi, and confirmed the return of the much-anticipated Kafka and Blade banners.

During the conclusion of the Version 1.6 Special Program special stream, it was revealed that Honkai: Star Rail will be offering a complimentary Dr. Ratio from the commencement of Version 1.6's "Panta Rhei" Warp phase until Version 2.1.

How to claim?

Players can claim this reward in their mailboxes upon completing "A Moment of Peace," the inaugural mission in the game. This gesture from HoYoverse serves as an expression of gratitude to players for their support, especially after winning awards such as Best Mobile Game at The Game Awards, Apple's iPhone Game of the Year, and Google Play's Best Game.

Numerous Honkai: Star Rail players are thrilled about the prospect of saving pulls for their first Dr. Ratio in the latter part of Version 1.6. This decision also opens the opportunity to boost Dr. Ratio's Eidolon level if they opt to continue summoning from his banner.

Dr. Ratio, an Imaginary-type character on the Path of The Hunt, belongs to the Intelligentsia Guild. He is dedicated to sharing knowledge across the universe to eradicate ignorance, despite his eccentric and self-centered nature, often seen wearing a plaster sculpture bust over his head. While Dr. Ratio's personality may not resonate with all Honkai: Star Rail characters, many players already find him amusing.

Honkai: Star Rail is set to introduce thrilling features and characters in upcoming updates. The Version 1.6 Special Program stream's epilogue unveiled new additions for the Penacony arc, such as Black Swan, Sparkle, Acheron, and others.

While the exact arrival of the Trailblazers in Penacony for the main story continuation remains unconfirmed, players can anticipate this exciting arc in the early part of the upcoming year.
