HSR:Version 3.5-3.8 Banners roadmap Leaked!Your most-anticipated characters are here!

Greeting,Trailblazers! As we approach the middle of 2025, fresh leaks have emerged revealing what's coming in Honkai: Star Rail version 3.5-3.8. Let's dive into these leaks and explore the upcoming banners and new characters that will soon join the ever-expanding roster of Astral Express. Please note that information in this article is based on leaks and is subject to change until officially confirmed by HoYoverse.

HSR 3.5 Banner Leaks

According to recent leaks from trusted sources, Honkai: Star Rail 3.5 will introduce two new 5-star characters: Hysilens and Cerydra, both members of the Chrysos Heirs. If you've been saving your Stellar Jade and Star Rail Special Passes, now might be the time to start planning your pulls!

• Phase 1: Hysilens (Physical - Nihility),The Herta
• Phase 2: Cerydra (Ice - Harmony)

Phase 1:Hysilens

Hysilens is poised to become a 5-star Physical character following the Path of Nihility. As a member of the Chrysos Heirs, she will introduce a distinct aesthetic and innovative combat mechanics to the game.

According to leaks, Hysilens is positioned as a Bleed-focused Damage-over-Time (DoT) Support, featuring mechanics for damage stacking and detonation triggers. Paired with Fengjin (Healer) from Version 3.3, she will complete the ultimate DoT team composition: Kafka + Black Swan + Hysilens + Fengjin. This setup aims to resolve current team issues such as slow damage ramp-up and insufficient damage output, solidifying a cohesive DoT meta-system.

Phase 2:Cerydra

Cerydra, one of the Twelve Golden Scions, will debut in the second phase of Version 3.5. With her snow-white hair and sapphire-black attire, she is a 5-star Ice character aligned with the Harmony path. Despite her Harmony affiliation, she uniquely serves as a Memory path support unit, specializing in summoning mechanics through her "Yiling Eidolons" (Billionsoul constructs). Leaks confirm her role as a dedicated teammate for Bai’e, synergizing to amplify memory-recall combat mechanics and solidify frost-based team compositions.

HSR 3.6 Banner Leaks

March 7th SP (Path of Memory)

Current Version: March 7th is a 4★ Preservation (Ice) character focused on shields and counter-damage.

SP Speculation:

• Path Change: Could shift from Preservation to Memory (possibly a new Path, or a subtype of Remembrance/Nihility), focusing on freezing enemies or memory manipulation (e.g., revives/debuff resets).
• Skills:
  • • May summon "memory fragments" (illusions of past battles) to assist in combat.
    • Could enhance Freeze effects (similar to "Dissociation" status from characters like Herta or Silver Wolf).

Dan Heng SP (Path of Preservation, Physical, Summon)

Current Versions:

Base Dan Heng: 4★ Hunt (Wind), single-target DPS.

Dan Heng•Imbibitor Lunae: 5★ Destruction (Imaginary), AoE burst damage.

SP Speculation:

• Path Change: As Preservation, he might focus on physical shields or counter-attacks.
• Summon Mechanic:"Dragon" summons could provide scales/shields (damage reduction) or coordinated attacks (triggered by ally actions).Might fill the niche for Physical shield-breaking, as current Physical DPS options (e.g., Clara, Sushang) lack dedicated shield-breakers.

Role: Support/Utility with dual-form mechanics
