Star Rail 3.0 leaks reveal details about Herta's 5-star form

An interesting one Honkai: Star Rail The leak has revealed a wealth of information about a new character that is expected to appear in the coming months. Since its release Honkai: Star Rail has generally followed the pattern of releasing at least two new five-star characters per update, one for each banner cycle.

As the list of playable characters expanded, HoYoverse introduced the double banner mechanic that makes it possible Honkai to feature two five-star units per banner cycle. The ongoing double banner features two popular characters: new Erudition Imaginary user Rappa and popular DPS unit Imbibitor Lunae, considered a five-star version of Dan Heng.

Unlike most other HoYoverse titles Honkai: Star Rail has introduced five-star versions of its four-star units. Fugue, one of the most recently introduced characters, is the five-star form of a popular four-star character in Honkai: Star Rail named Tingyun. Even though Fugue was only recently officially added to the list of playable players Honkai: Star Rail Leaks have revealed a lot of information about a new character, which is expected to be the five-star version of Herta. The official storyline has confirmed that Herta is a member of the Genius Society and appears as a puppet modeled after her younger self. A new post on the topic Honkai: Star Rail The Leaks subreddit provided additional information on Herta's five-star form, which will apparently arrive in version 3.0.

• Her weapon is a large staff shaped like a key.

Another reason why players expect the five-star Herta to be an S-tier character Honkai: Star Rail is the fact that it is expected to appear in version 3.0, which is expected to be one of the biggest updates to the game. According to recent leaks, Herta's new form won't be the only new five-star character in this update.
