Rappa is the featured banner for version 2.6 in Honkai: Star Rail
The release of Version 2.6 in Honkai: Star Rail will feature the Rappa banner, which was recently teased on official HSR social media accounts. This update is expected to go live around October 21, 2024, with Rappa as the first banner. Rappa is an Imaginary element character following the Erudition Path, known for her powerful AoE abilities, some new gameplay features, and a rumored enhanced basic attack.
Additionally, leaks suggest that Rappa, as an Erudition Path character, excels at dealing with AoE damage to groups of enemies, making her especially effective in battles against multiple foes. While many of her abilities remain undisclosed, leaks from HomDGCat hint that her skills might be a bit more unique compared to typical Erudition characters.
Version 2.6 info and light cone leaks
You should know that the upcoming Honkai: Star Rail Version 2.6, will continue the story in Penacony, with the narrative expected to be slightly longer than the total story content of Version 2.3. In terms of character updates, there is currently only Rappa as one confirmed new 5-star Gacha character in Version 2.6, with some speculation about the addition of a 4-star character. Notably, at least one of the new characters will be of the Imaginary Element.
Additionally, you should know that there won’t be any new Event Light Cones (LC) or Herta Store LCs in Version 2.6. However, there will be a new 4-star Gacha LC and a new Relic Pair, though no new Planar Sets have been introduced. Looking ahead, HoYoverse has already begun early testing for W4 characters, which typically occurs about two patches before their respective beta versions.
