A new leak from Honkai: Star Rail reveals a brand new character set to join the game in a future update, the four-star ice character Misha. Following the highly successful launch of the sci-fi RPG at the end of last month, HoYoverse looks to have a lot in store for fans of the third spin-off of the Honkai Impact franchise in the near future. Leaks have already teased several characters expected to join the game's roster, including the popular Stellaron Hunters Kafka and Silver Wolf, among others. Now, a completely new character is being teased for the future of the RPG.
While HoYoverse is just gearing up for Honkai: Star Rail's first post-launch special, leaks are already giving fans an idea of what to expect from the next update. Upcoming version 1.1 has been leaked and features two new five-star characters coming to the game in Silver Wolf and Luocha, along with new features such as a chat system. HoYoverse also confirmed that the previously mentioned Kafka and fellow Stellaron Hunter Blade would make their debuts in version 1.2. Now, another yet-to-be-announced character set to join the "Rail" cast has recently surfaced.
A recent leak from Honkai: Star Rail Leaker Affinity introduced a description of Misha's appearance and gameplay. Misha sports a notably icy design, with light blue hair and blue as a common color throughout their designs, reportedly a character of ice destruction. Misha features heavy customization elements, with his Skill dealing damage and an Ultimate that bounces across multiple enemies. Misha also boasts a unique stacking "Kinetic Energy" system, granting increased Weakness Break from Ice attacks and bonus hits from his Ultimate. Misha's release window is currently unknown.
Misha's heavily damage-focused kit looks to place the character more on the offensive side of the Destruction Path. The character's abilities do not appear to feature any defensive elements, similar to the damage reduction afforded by Clara's Ultimate. Misha looks like a strong choice for players looking to run him as one of their team's main or sub-DPS characters, able to quickly pick off Ice's weaknesses. The leak also hinted that Misha would be a four-star character at the time of release.
While most of the Honkai: Star Rail leaks have been related to the game's new five-star character, other four-star members such as Misha have been teased. Leaks heavily hinted that Yukon would be released with the upcoming version 1.1 as a four-star character, alongside either Silver Wolf or Luocha. A recent character reveal for HoYoverse also showed off a four-star character who joins the game in version 1.2, alongside Luca as a member of Jarillo-VI's Wildfire organization. Honkai: Star Rail's opening patch looks to bring a variety of new and unique characters to the game's roster.
