Honkai Impact 3rd to launch version 8.0 In Search of the Sun this month

Honkai Impact 3rd's Sun-Soaked January Update: Reign Solaris and More!

Honkai Impact 3rd kicks off the new year with its "In Search of the Sun" update, arriving January 9th. This update brings a wealth of new content, including a highly anticipated new battlesuit and an expansion of the main storyline.

The star of the show is Durandal's new IMG-type Physical DMG battlesuit, Reign Solaris. This agile fighter boasts two distinct modes: Rampager, focusing on powerful charged attacks, and Skyrider, enabling swift battlefield maneuvers. Acquire Durandal's signature weapons, the Valorous Effulgence and its PRI-ARM variant, Valorous Effulgence: New Voyage, to maximize her potential.

The narrative continues with "Bouquets of Unfulfilled Wishes," reuniting the Dreamseeker and her companion in the Mars system as they delve deeper into the Ten Shus war. Prepare for intense action and emotional moments, complemented by the new On-Duty Work Guide minigame, a 3D puzzle featuring Cube-ianka.
