With the latest update in Honkai Star Rail, players got hold of recent events and characters in the game. Alongside the surprise appearance of Screwllum in Herta's Space Station, multiple new sources of Stellar Jades are currently available. However, with the latest update being live for a few days, the community is already excited about some upcoming content in future versions.

One such piece of content comes in the form of a somewhat familiar face. The Imbibitor Lunae, also known as Dan Heng to many, seems to have faced an upgrade from his human form. With modifications in his abilities, element, and Paths, HoYoverse might be taking a Honkai Impact 3rd route, releasing multiple variants of the same character.

The following article will list everything players need to know regarding the newest leaked version of Dan Heng, his possible release dates, and more.
