Honkai Star Rail next Banner and current Banner, list of all Banners in Honkai Star Rail

Every current and upcoming character and Light Cone Banner.

Honkai Star Rail Banners are what you can spend your Star Pass currency on to Warp for characters and Light Cone weapons.

Every character event Banner runs for three weeks, making way for the next Banner. These event Banners have a single 5-Star character with boosted pull odds, and three boosted 4-Stars.

There is also a Light Cone weapon Banner that changes its featured 5-Star and 4-Star pulls every three weeks as well, and two permanent Banners available with their own unique character and Light Cone pools.

We’ve detailed what the next and current Banners are in Honkai Star Rail below, along with a list of all Banners that have ran in the game since its 1.0 launch.

Honaki Star Rail next Banner event characters

For these temporary event character Banners, you have to use Special Star Passes to Warp on them, and this Banner changes every three weeks.

The next Banner in Honkai Star Rail is Kafka, during Phase 2 of version 1.2. New character Luka will also be one of the boosted 4-Stars on Kafka's Banner.

Kafka is a 5-Star Lightning character of The Nihility path featured on her Nessun Dorma Banner.

All of the boosted 4-Star characters on Kafka's next Banner are:

  • Luka (Physical, The Nihility)
  • Sampo (Wind, The Nihility)
  • Serval (Lightning, The Erudition)

With no official announcements made for 1.3, we only have a potential leak from Team China and some educated guesswork from the official Star Rail characters page and drip marketing for version 1.3.

Be warned that multiple links to the leaks below contain a major story and character spoiler for version 1.3. Although, this has already been revealed on Honkai Star Rail's official social media accounts.

With all that out of the way, to help you decide who to save your precious Stellar Jade for, we've compiled information below on what the leaked upcoming Banners are according to Team China information shared on the HonkaiStarRail_leaks subreddit (this link contains a huge spoiler for 1.3!), which seems to be unofficially confirmed through the official character page and drip marketing.

Honkai Star Rail 1.3 Banner leaks

Based on the information mentioned above, in version 1.3 of Honkai Star Rail we should get 5-Star Fu Xuan and 5-Star Dan Heng's Imbibitor Lunae form. We officially know that Fu Xuan is a Quantum attacker of The Preservation path, and Dan Heng's Imbibitor Lunae form is an Imaginary attacker of the The Destruction path.

Both of these 5-Stars have already been featured on social media, adding credence to the leaks. Gepard and Serval's younger sister, the 4-Star Lynx, has also been teased through drip marketing, so it's likely she'll debut on either the Fu Xuan or Imbibitor Lunae Banner.

Fu Xuan.

To summarise the information above, here's all of the leaked 1.3 Banners in Honkai Star Rail:

  • Fu Xuan (5-Star Quantum Element, The Preservation path) - Version 1.3
  • Dan Heng's Imbibitor Lunae form (5-Star Imaginary Element, The Destruction path) - Version 1.3
  • Lynx (4-Star Quantum Element, The Abundance path) - Version 1.3

The order of the Banners is subject to change. We will update this page with official Banner information when it's made available!


Version 1.2, Blade, and Kafka are here! Make sure to redeem those new codes for Stellar Jade if you want either of them - and check them out on our regularly updated tier list. For everything else, we have pages on the next Banner, Ministry of Education quiz answers, how to get more Star Rail Passes, Stagnant Shadows, and an English voice actors list.


Honkai Star Rail next Brilliant Fixation Banner Light Cones

Brilliant Fixation is a permanent weapon Banner with boosted 5-Star and 4-Star weapons that changes its weapon pool every three weeks, at the same time new event character Banners are added. Just like these character Banners, you must use Special Warp Passes to Warp on Brilliant Fixation.

The next Light Cone Banner in Honkai Star Rail features The Nihility path 5-Star Patience Is All You Need, Kafka's signature weapon.

We don't know what the boosted 4-Star Light Cones will be on Kafka's weapon Banner just yet, but we'll update this page when we do.

1.3 Light Cones

Even if a Light Cone has a certain character's picture on it, it can still be used by anyone.

Just like the next characters, we don't have any official information on what the version 1.3 Light Cones will be in Honkai Star Rail. However, it's almost certain that a new 5-Star Light Cone will run alongside every new character for future patches.

This 5-Star weapon will likely be custom made for that 5-Star, making it their signature weapon. Remember though that other characters of the same path can also benefit from this Light Cone's special abilities, but if you equip it on a character of a different path, they only receive the stats from that weapon, not the special perk.

Based on the character leaks and official information posted in the section above, here's the possible path details for the 1.3 new 5-Star Light Cone:

  • The Preservation - Version 1.3
  • The Destruction - Version 1.3

Honkai Star Rail current character event Banner

The current version 1.2 Phase 1 character Banner in Star Rail ends Wednesday 9th August. You can check exactly how long a Banner has left in your own server time by checking the top left-hand corner of an event Banner.

The current Banner in Honkai Star Rail features new character Blade on his A Lost Soul Banner. Blade is a 5-Star character who attacks with the Wind Element and follows The Destruction path.

The boosted 4-Star characters on Blade's current Banner are:

  • Arlan (Lightning, The Destruction)
  • Natasha (Physical, The Abundance)
  • Sushang (Physical, The Hunt)

Honkai Star Rail current Brilliant Fixation Banner

The current Brilliant Fixation Banner runs until Wednesday, 9th August.

This current Light Cone Banner features The Unreachable Side Light Cone, Blade's signature weapon of The Destruction path.

Here's all of the 4-Star Light Cones boosted on the current Brilliant Fixation Banner in Honkai Star Rail:

  • A Secret Vow (The Destruction)
  • Shared Feeling (The Abundance)
  • Swordplay (The Hunt)

Keep in mind that even if a Light Cone has a picture of a specific character on it, you can still use that weapon on anybody to increase their stats. However, only characters who are on the same path as the Light Cone can benefit from its unique abilities.

Honkai Star Rail Departure Warp Banner

You can spend your regular Star Passes on the permanent Departure Warp Banner. However, if you've Warped 50 times on it, Departure Warp will no longer be available.

It's worth using your regular Star Rail Passes on the Departure Banner, as there's a 20% discount for a set of 10 Warps, so you get ten for the price of eight, and you are guaranteed a 5-Star character within these 50 total pulls.

There are seven 5-Star characters you can get from the Departure Warp Banner in Honkai Star Rail:

  • Bailu
  • Bronya
  • Clara
  • Gepard
  • Himeko
  • Welt
  • Yanqing

Here's the 4-Star characters available in the Departure Warp Banner pool:

  • Arlan
  • Asta
  • Dan Heng
  • Herta
  • Hook
  • March 7th
  • Natasha
  • Pela
  • Qingque
  • Sampo
  • Serval
  • Sushang
  • Tingyun

Honkai Star Rail Regular Stellar Warp Banner

All 5-Star characters and Light Cones not included in event character Banners are available in Stellar Warp, a permanent Banner.

For every 10 Warps you make with regular Star Passes on Stellar Warp you are guaranteed at least one 4-Star character or Light Cone weapon.

When you make a total of 300 Warps on the regular Banner, you get to choose from any of the 5-Stars included on it.

Here are all the 5-Star characters you can get from the Regular Stellar Warp Banner:

  • Bailu
  • Bronya
  • Clara
  • Gepard
  • Himeko
  • Welt
  • Yanqing

There are a lot more 4-Star items than 5-Stars in the Banner, so here's every 4-Star character you can get from Stellar Warp:

  • Arlan
  • Asta
  • Dan Heng
  • Herta
  • Hook
  • March 7th
  • Natasha
  • Pela
  • Qingque
  • Sampo
  • Serval
  • Sushang
  • Tingyun
  • Yukong
