A recent leak from Honkai: Star Rail is hinting at a brand-new way players will be able to pick up five-star characters, though it will require a steep investment. The sci-fi RPG from HoYoverse has typically locked its highest-rarity characters behind the game's gacha system, though some special events have given out free units to fans. HoYoverse first gave out a free five-star character during the Version 1.6 update, with players receiving a free copy of new character Dr. Ratio. Now, fans may have another elusive way to pick up five-star roster members.
