Honkai Star Rail 1.5 patch countdown

Patch 1.5 in Honkai Star Rail is expected to launch on November 15, 2023, at 11 am (UTC+8), following the five-hour maintenance break. Players can keep an eye on the countdown below, which actively tracks the release of the major update.

The servers should be live once the timer hits zero, featuring Huohuo’s banner, which will follow the usual three-week warp cycle. The second phase of the patch marks Argenti’s debut as a playable 5-star character alongside Hanya, the new 4-star unit.

Lastly, a Silver Wolf rerun is also coming to the v1.5 update. Her banner is also worth going for in case you need a strong support unit on your roster. She has access to an assortment of debuffs that can weaken enemies, helping other characters deal additional damage to them.
