Honkai: Star Rail 1.1 update adds feature Genshin Impact fans have wanted for years

Check out the Honkai: Star Rail 1.1 patch notes

Update 1.1 for Honkai: Star Rail is live and the patch notes reveal that HoYoverse has been very busy over the past couple of weeks, adding a ton of quality-of-life improvements and other good changes.

Perhaps the biggest addition is the Conventional Memoir feature found in the Travel Log. You can find some past in-game events in there and replay them to obtain rewards and experience their stories in case you’ve missed out on them. This is a feature Genshin Impact players wanted for years at this point, since it allows newer players to catch up on old events, some of which are relevant to the main story. This is a great addition to Honkai: Star Rail and perhaps might be a sign that HoYoverse is working on adding this to Genshin as well.

The Simulated Universe now has an additional index page listing all events you’ve found so far and rewarding you with 20 Stellar Jade for each, so be sure to claim them to expand your Silver Wolf fund. World Shops have also been updated, providing an additional purchasing option for Credits that allows you to invest leftover world currency.

In the quality-of-life department, there has also been a change around the area of the Crimson Calyx in the Robot Settlement, where you can obtain material for Harmony characters. Enemies around that Calyx now look into the other direction, so you won’t have to worry about fighting them anymore when teleporting to that domain – a small change with a big positive impact.

Go to your Travel Log and use the toggle in the bottom left corner to access old events you may have missed / HoYoverse
