Honkai: Star Rail has arrived on PS5, and we wouldn't like to guess how many people are hitting the download button right now. In case you don't know, this is another incredibly popular gatcha-based, free-to-play title from HoYoverse — the developer behind the colossus that is Genshin Impact. Honkai: Star Rail's been available on mobile for a while now, and if you're anything like our borderline obsessed editor Sammy, then you've probably already sank hours into that version in anticipation of this PS5 port.
The gameplay revolves around building a party of star-hopping adventurers and taking part in turn-based battles. The whole thing's wrapped up in a sci-fi story and an impressively clean, colourful art style. The game itself weighs in at 33.6GB on Sony's current-gen console.

***** annoying waiting until 6 for it to come out. Then another god damn hour for maintence. I hope the wait is worth it.
@RedRiot193 Platform wide update 1.4. You will have quite a lot to sink your teeth into. If you enjoy the game I would advise that you save your stella jades, figure out your play style with the free characters, look up online guides to see which of the available premium characters suit your style and try to get their signature weapon also. Will make a world of difference when tackling later content.
@z0d15g0d Do signature weapons matter that much for characters?
Is this any good?
@RedRiot193 You do realize that there's maintenance going on for the 1.4 update. Be patient
@Leonhart I've been patient since it came out. Doesn't stop me from expressing thoughts on it. And it makes zero sense for them to release a game on a platform to go straight into maintenance mode. Common sense would be to release the game when people can actually play the game.
@RedRiot193 You can make do with alts of the same class as there are some really good ones but signature weapons really do make a character stand out. When you start doing Calyx and Corrosion missions you will get the chance to use other players characters. You can try out characters with signature weapons and those without.
@z0d15g0d Cool thanks for the tips.
@LightningLeader Stay strong!
Been thinking about trying this out actually.
