You can look forward to the next phase of the Honkai: Star Rail and Fate/stay night collaboration as it expands with new playable content. Version 4.4 introduces Tohsaka Rin and Gilgamesh to the roster, continuing the crossover with fresh characters drawn directly from the Fate universe.
If you follow this collaboration, you will see the event move beyond its initial release and deepen its integration into the game. This update focuses on adding these two iconic figures as playable units, giving you more options and new reasons to engage with the ongoing partnership between the two franchises.
When is the second part of the Honkai Star Rail x Fate/stay night collaboration?
You can expect the second phase of the collaboration to launch with Version 4.4, scheduled for mid-July 2026. The update will roll out across all servers during that patch cycle.
This phase introduces two new playable crossover units:
- Tohsaka Rin
- Gilgamesh
You will likely see a new story chapter built around a Holy Grail War-style scenario set within the Honkai: Star Rail universe.
The existing collaboration content remains active. You can still access the themed mode in the Radiant Feldspar, along with banners featuring Saber and Archer from the earlier phase.
