Unlike the ongoing patch, the first phase of the upcoming Honkai Star Rail 3.5 update will feature two 5-star and three 4-star characters. Among the two 5-star units, one will be a rerun that already exists in the title. The other is the newest Physical character, Hysilens, who will join the Nihility roster right after her release.

Both 5-stars will become available alongside version 3.5 since the first half always commences when the patch releases. All characters that will be available throughout the first half of the Honkai Star Rail version 3.5 patch are as follows:

5-stars: Hysilens (new) and Kafka (rerun).
4-stars: Hook, Arlan, and Asta.

With the characters, two 5-star Light Cones (LCs) will be available during the first half of Honkai Star Rail version 3.5. One of the LCs is Hysilens’ weapon, Why Does Ocean Sing, while the other one is Kafka’s signature. Although the latter unit has been buffed, she can still effectively use the LC’s power.

The following are the Light Cones that Trailblazers can get during the first phase of Honkai Star Rail version 3.5:

5-stars: Why Does the Ocean Sing (new) and Patience Is All You Need (rerun).
4-stars: Indelible Promise, Eyes of the Prey, and Poised to Bloom.
