Hoyoverse has revealed that Honkai: Star Rail's 2.0 update will launch on February 6. The update will allow players to visit the new world, Penacony, and add three new playable characters to the game's roster.

Penacony will be the fourth world in Honkai: Star Rail, and its Trailblaze Missions will span between the game's 2.0 to 2.2 updates, with an epilogue coming in version 2.3.

Black Swan is the first new playable character. She is a five-star character and when using basic attacks or skills in combat, she will sometimes inflict a stackable status called Arcana. Enemies under the Arcana state can be hit with additional effects based on how many stacks there are.

Sparkle is a new five-star character too. Her mere presence increases her team's maximum skill points. Her unique skill not only boosts critical damage of her targeted teammate, but can also grant Advance Forwards, speeding up their next turn.

The third character is Misha, a four-star character. The more skill points his teammates use in battle, the more damage his ultimate will inflict. His ultimate also has a chance to inflict Freeze on the target.

Honkai: Star Rail is available for PC, PlayStation 5, iOS, and Android.
