It’s a little late for spooky season, but Honkai: Star Rail update 1.5 nevertheless comes around the corner with a Halloween-inspired flagship event when it launches on November 15, 2023.

In terms of content, the upcoming game version has a lot to offer: We’ll get a whole new map to explore, a free event-exclusive 4-Star Light Cone for The Abundance, two Relic sets that’ll force us to re-evaluate several character builds, a fresh Simulated Universe world with another two Planar Ornament sets that will further alter many builds, new enemies to face, and more.

Update 1.5 for Honkai: Star Rail is called The Crepuscule Zone / HoYoverse

Here is everything you need to know about the Honkai: Star Rail 1.5 events, Relics, and Planar Ornaments.

Foxian Tale of the Haunted

After recent events left the Xianzhou Luofu quite shaken up, the ghost-like heliobi sealed in the Creation Furnace have escaped – the Ten-Lords Commission is tasked with hunting them down, but it looks like they could need the help of the Trailblazer to complete the mission. Players will also be tasked with managing Guinaifen's social media during this exciting ghost-hunting time.

Rewards:

  • Self-Modeling Resin
  • Tracks of Destiny
  • Stellar Jade
  • Relic Remains
  • Hey, Over Here (4-Star Light Cone, The Abundance)
    • Increase the wearer’s maximum HP by 8%. When the wearer uses their Skill, increase Outgoing Healing by 16% for two turns.

Foxian Tale of the Haunted will unlock a new map on the Xianzhou Luofu, which will contain a fresh Cavern of Corrosion. There, players will be able to obtain two brand-new Relic sets:

  • The Ashblazing Grand Duke
    • Set Bonus (Two Pieces): Increase the wearer’s follow-up attack damage by 20%.
    • Set Bonus (Four Pieces): When the wearer uses follow-up attacks, increase the wearer’s Attack by 6% every time the follow-up attack deals damage. The effect can stack up to eight times and lasts for three turns. This effect is removed the next time the wearer uses a follow-up attack.
  • Prisoner in Deep Confinement
    • Set Bonus (Two Pieces): Increases the wearer’s Attack by 12%.
    • Set Bonus (Four Pieces): For every DoT effect the target is afflicted with, the wearer will ignore 6% of its Defense when dealing damage to it. This effect is valid for a maximum of three DoT effects.

A new Stagnant Shadow, Shape of Perdition, will be available on the new map as well, providing Ascension Materials for new Physical Damage characters.

Boulder Town Knack Exhibition Tournament

Boulder Town’s fight club is once again hosting a martial arts event – the Knack Exhibition Tournament. Surely the Trailblazer will be able to triumph in the face of ancient Belobogian fighting styles?

Stellar Shadowseeker

March 7th has captured many of the interesting moments of your journey together on camera. However, it seems like there are some issues with some of these pictures. A new mystery for the Trailblazer to solve.
