Excitement is building as Honkai Impact 3rd gears up to release its v8.1 update, Drumming in New Resolutions, on February 20th. This update promises an array of new battlesuits, stunning outfits, and enticing anniversary rewards that players won't want to miss.
What’s New in the Update?
Kiana makes a fierce comeback with her new SD-type battlesuit, Ba-Dum! Fiery Wishing Star. She's ready to ignite the battlefield with her long staff, executing a 4-sequence attack that inflicts Fire DMG and accumulates Passion Marks for devastating AOE damage. Her recommended weapon and PRI-ARM enhance her fiery prowess, ensuring enemies truly feel the heat. Meanwhile, Herrscher of Human: Ego isn't left behind, receiving new gear including a recommended Divine Key, PRI-ARM, and a stigmata set that perfectly complements her abilities.
On the narrative front, Honkai Impact 3rd v8.1 delves deeper into Leylah’s story. Following the dream crisis of the Spring Festival in v8.0, Kiana returns to reality, partnering with Rice Cake for a new mission assigned by Theresa. This time, their destination is the Moon Base for a festive celebration. Playing through the interlude not only advances the storyline but also rewards players with Crystals, Source Prisms, and various other goodies.
Adding to the fun, players can activate a special board to collect Yearly Chibis, building their team, and earn shop tokens. These tokens can be exchanged for Crystals, Coralie's new outfit, and a host of other rewards.
