HoYoverse’s popular Gacha RPG Honkai Star Rail is getting a creepy new update on November 15th. Version 1.5, dubbed “The Crepuscule Zone,” brings an eerie new location, three fresh playable characters, and exciting events to the acclaimed gacha game.
Enter the Haunted Fyxestroll Garden
The highlight of this update is the addition of Fyxestroll Garden, located in Xianzhou’s Luofu region. Described as a hotbed of paranormal activity, this area is shrouded in a gloomy dusk-like ambience.

The mysterious four-star Hanya uses her powers to read karmic sins and afflict foes with a Burden state. Her occult-themed skillset should prove useful against spectral enemies.
Finally, the elegant five-star Knight of Beauty, Argenti, unleashes a special Ultimate ability consuming large amounts of energy. Her noble upbringing gives her a cultured flair.
