Honkai: Star Rail Banners allow players to use their Star Pass currency to Warp for characters and Light Cone weapons.
Each character event Banner is active for three weeks, paving the way for the next Banner. These special event Banners feature one 5-Star character with increased pull odds, alongside three boosted 4-Star characters.
In addition to character event Banners, there are Light Cone weapon Banners that also change their featured pulls every three weeks, along with two permanent Banners that present unique character and Light Cone pools.
Below we detail the current Banners and the next Banners in Honkai: Star Rail, as well as a history of all Banners since the game’s 1.0 launch.
