Honkai: Star Rail Version 4.7 ‘Now, Lay Laughter to All Stars’ Releases on November 11

HoYoverse has announced that Honkai: Star Rail version 4.7, titled “Now, Lay Laughter to All Stars,” will release on November 7. It features a new character, new events, and more.

A press release outlines the story of the new update:

For over a thousand Amber Eras, the leviathan, the Voracity, has been kept sealed by Aha’s “Phantasmoon Games.” But now, this behemoth is on the verge of a full awakening. To stop the leviathan from regaining its strength and devouring the entire universe, Aha has launched the hunt for the Voracity, summoning eight Supplicants to stage a spectacular performance known as the “Final Phantasmoon Games.” Serving as the stage for this grand scheme, the Starfroster will set sail across the vast sea of stars. Tasked with the mission to lure the Voracity, this sweet, cake-like ship will bear witness to a grand finale spanning the cosmos, under the orchestration of The Laughter.

Aeon ★ Aha is a new 5-star character on the Path of Elation. They are  the creator of the “Phantasmoon Games” and “have spent millennia observing the joys and sorrows of the cosmos through theatrics and jests.” In combat, they will cause the Path of Elation to ascend for Elation characters, giving each Elation character unique combat abilities. Furthermore, Aha will star as the leading role in the all-new “Aha
Instant” ability, which fast-forwards the performances of Elation Skills. As the battle progresses, the entire team will continuously accumulate Wishpower for Aha. Once Wishpower is full, the Ultimate can be activated, dealing Elation DMG to all enemies. Not only that, but their Aeonic Authority, allows the attacks of allies to directly reduce enemy Max HP. 

In the first half of Version 4.7, the limited 5-star characters Silver Wolf LV.999, Sparxie, and Yao Guang will get their reruns. Acheron, Dan Heng • Imbibitor Lunae, and Jing Yuan will return in the second half. The update also adds the new Affinitive Eidolon growth system, alongside the following events: “The Fluffy Movie: Overheated,” “Interastral Peace Gala: Road to Fame,” “Voyage Into the Canvas” (which is the second season of “Currency Wars”), and the “Phantasia Showstage” event. The latter allows players to unlock an outfit for Aeon ★ Aha. 

Honkai: Star Rail is available now for Android via Google Play Store, iOS via App Store, PlayStation 5, and PC via Epic Games Store. Check out the trailer for version 4.7 below:
