But what really makes this update special is the Saga of Primaveral Blade event, which will occur in September 2024.

HSR 2.4 New Characters
The new characters are probably the most exciting thing about the Honkai Star Rail 2.4 update, as it brings three new playable characters for you. Here are the details about them.
5-Star character Yunli HSR
Honkai Star Rail Yunli would be the best character for those who are looking to do more offence than defence. This character carrying the 5-star classification is capable of Blast Counter attacks in response to any attack taken. Moreover, Yunli throws her ‘Ultimate’ power where she can automatically enter the Parry state to taunt the enemies. After the Parry state ends, Yunli HSR automatically performs a counterattack.
5-Star character HSR Jiaoqiu
Honkai Star Rail Jiaoqiu works perfectly as the supporting character who is capable of applying Ashen Roast on enemies, which increases the burn damage they take. But that’s not all. Jiaoqiu HSR activates a field to counter against the enemy attack right after throwing the Ashen Roast, which does significant damage to the enemies.
4-Star character March 7
March 7 is an offensive character which sounds more like a date, but can do some serious damage. With some mentorship from his teammates, March 7 can gain various enhancements. Moreover, he is capable of accumulating charges through various actions performed by his master.
