Complete Breakdown of Honkai Star Rail 4.0 Phase Two Banners and Events

The Honkai Star Rail 4.0 phase two banners and events will begin on March 3, 2026. This update will bring new banners and some events for Trailblazers. Along with the new characters, their signature Light Cones will also be available in the update. It’s the second half of 4.0, so players can get units they may have missed or new ones that just released.

Sparxie Limited-Time Banner

The prominent banner for Honkai Star Rail phase two is the Sparxie Limited-Time Banner, which will be available until the end of the patch. This Fire-type character belongs to the Elation Path, and her exclusive ability, Light Cone: Dazzled By a Flowery World, can also be acquired. Sparxie appears to be quite potent in burst teams, and her elemental skills make her a great candidate to be included in mid-game and end-game teams.

Besides the Sparxie banner, three rerun characters can also be acquired.

• Cerydra (Wind, Harmony Path)
• Rappa (Imaginary, Erudition Path)
• Sparkle (Quantum, Harmony Path)

Realm of the Strange Event

As part of the latest update, provided to the player base on March 13, 2026, Honkai Star Rail 4.0 phase two banners and events have been added. The latest phase adds a new event to the game called "Realm of the Strange." This new event will provide additional efficient ways for players to Farm for Resources.

Impact for Trailblazers

A new character, Sparxie, has been added to the game, which provides a new element to the puzzle for players. These new characters give you different ways to play with the rerun characters like Cerydra and Sparkle. Another benefit of using both new and rerun characters together will be using them to collect Relics in the Realm of the Strange without spending any premium currency.

Phase two of version 4.0 would seem to cater to Trailblazers who will have more time for strategy while summoning and forming teams. Their ability to take advantage of new character abilities will benefit those who summon strategically. The introduction of Sparxie and rerun characters exemplifies that the game developers are striving to create a more dynamic/strategic mid-patch update for the game.
