Get ready, Honkai Impact 3rd fans, because the v8.1 update, "Drumming in New Resolutions," is set to launch on February 20th, and it's packed with exciting new content. From fresh battlesuits to stunning outfits and generous anniversary rewards, there's plenty to look forward to.
Let's Dive into the New Features
Kiana makes a fiery return with her new SD-type battlesuit, Ba-Dum! Fiery Wishing Star. This battlesuit wields a long staff, unleashing a 4-sequence attack that inflicts Fire DMG and accumulates Passion Marks for impactful AOE damage. Her performance is further enhanced with the recommended weapon and PRI-ARM, ensuring that her fiery attacks are more devastating than ever. Additionally, the Herrscher of Human: Ego is equipped with a new Divine Key, PRI-ARM, and stigmata set, designed to boost her effectiveness on the battlefield.
On the narrative front, Honkai Impact 3rd v8.1 delves deeper into Leylah's story. Following the Spring Festival dream crisis in v8.0, Kiana returns to reality and joins forces with Rice Cake for a new mission assigned by Theresa. This time, their journey takes them to the Moon Base for a festive celebration. By playing through the interlude, you can earn Crystals, Source Prisms, and a variety of other rewards.
There's also a fun board feature where you can activate and collect Yearly Chibis to build your team. Plus, you can accumulate shop tokens to exchange for Crystals, Coralie's new outfit, and other exciting rewards.
