As suggested in the Reddit post above, the major event for version 1.6 of Honkai Star Rail is known as the “Exotic Pets Expropriation.” It is reportedly set to launch as soon as version 1.6 goes live, featuring Ruan Mei, Asta, and Screwllum of the Genius Society.

The event will supposedly follow the Trailblazer as they are enlisted by Asta to investigate the “Confinement Zone” that holds Ruan Mei’s unique “creations.” Players will have to interact with these strange creatures using the “Life Baking Box” and “Nanny Robot” provided to them by Screwllum.
