- princess
- Kafka
- Bronya
- silver wolf
- Cocoa
- Soul
- swelling
- Li Sushang
- Natasha
princess
Honkai Himeko Star Trail VS Honkai Academy 2
Himeko first appeared in MiHoYo's Houkai Gakuen 2 and later returned in Honkai Impact 3rd. In both games, as in Star Railroad, Himeko is a strong female leader and squad commander.
Himeko is the commander of the Honkai 3rd
In a rather gruesome twist, Ji Zi died and left in both of the previous Honkai gamesFans want to knowTheir destiny in Honkai: Star Trail. Jizi is probably the most famous of the Honkai: Star Trails recurring characters.
Kafka
As the villain in Honkai: Interstellar Railway, Kafka has undergone earth-shattering changes since his debut in Honkai Academy 2. In Honkai Gakuen 2, Kafka is described as a sickly young girl with a somber mood. This is in stark contrast to the confident and powerful Kafka we've seen in Honkai: Star Trails so far.
It's a giant leap from aspiring author to Stellaron Hunter. MiHoYo's design changes perfectly match her personality transformation.
Cocoa
maybe surprising,CocoaAlso a recurring character. Originally she was an arms dealer of Honkai Academy 2, Bronya's adoptive mother and later became the commander of Honkai 3rd. In her previous two appearances in Honkai, Cocolia is of Russian descent, as in Honkai: Star Trail, and is not afraid to fight for her cause.
Cocolia's relationship with her adopted daughter, Bronya - a storyline in Honkai: Interstellar Railway - has also been mentioned in previous entries.
Bronya
Bronya in Honkai: Interstellar Railroad vs. Honkai Gakuen 2 alternate skins
Considered one of the main characters of MiHoYo, Bronya appears in three games of the Honkai universe: Honkai Gakuen 2 (Guns GirlZ), Honkai 3rd and Honkai: Star Trail. She is also the adopted daughter of Cocolia in three breeds.
Bronya's design in Star Trail is apparently inspired by another skin of hers in Honkai Academy 2, the Rational Ruler.
Design by Bronya in Houkai Academy 2 and Houkai 3rd
In all Bronya iterations of the Honkai series, she is a sniper, similar to Honkai: Interstellar Railway. However, in previous games, she was known as Bronya Zaychik, who is originally from Russia. Interestingly, Bronya's alias in Honkai Gakuen 2 is Silver Wolf, and MiHoYo has used that moniker to create a whole new cast of charactersHonkai Star Trail Version 1.1.
silver wolf
Silver Wolf's design was clearly inspired by Bronya's appearance in Honkai Impact 3rd
Based on her backstory, the hacker Silver Wolf who will appear in version 1.1 may not exist in Honkai, but her presence is a throwback to previous Honkai games.
Bronya's Honkai: Astral Trail theme is based on alternate skins, preserving her "classic" look from Honkai 3rd. MiHoYo seems pretty smart about using Bronya's alias "Silver Wolf" and her previous character designs as the basis for a brand new playable character.
swelling
In terms of appearance, the world has undergone quite a transformation, from the dark gothic look of Houkai Gakuen 2 to the wise scholar of Honkai: Star Rail. However, his appearance in Honkai 3rd is very close to how we know him today.
In previous Honkai games, World Yang was known to possess the ability to manipulate gravity, and he was the first of his kind to do so. In Honkai 3rd, World is the monarch of the anti-Honkai organization called "Anti-Entropy" - Cocolia and Bronya are also members of the organization. Welter also appears as a character inHonkai 3Comics.
Soul
Xier is a minor character in the previous Honkai. She is a gentle and considerate girl, which is completely different from the arrogant and domineering character in Honkai: Star Trail.
Soul of Honkai Interstellar Orbit vs Swallowtail Phantom Skin Soul of Honkai 3rd
Seele's role in Honkai Impact 3rd, Cocolia's other adopted daughter and Bronya, is very interesting because she has an alter ego. The alter ego is called a "shadow" that lives within herthe late, a source of insane power known as Stigmata, who is both their protector and tormentor.
Soul and her alternate alter ego skin Veliona in Honkai Impact 3rd
In Honkai: Star Trails, Soul is an unlockable quantum elemental character who grew up in the dangerous underworld of Beloborg. In version 1.0, we got a glimpse of her relentless drive to achieve her goals as part of Wildfire, an unstoppable drive very similar to Veliona's.
Sushang
Li Sushang was a late addition to Honkai Impact 3rd and earned the title as an S-Tier character in October 2022 as part of Update 6.1. Li Sushang is introduced as an Ice support character whose slot is full to activate Sword Array mode. Sword Array mode grants Li Su the ability to attack combos, similar to her sword style in Honkai Star Trail.
Li Sushang is one of the protagonists of MihayouVisual novel “Seven Swords”.After that, she becomes a playable character in the game. Her background is that she was cryogenically frozen and thawed after being injured to become involved in current events.
Li Sushang is one of the protagonists of the visual novel Seven Swords. She was later added as a playable character to Honkai Impact 3rd.
In Honkai Impact 3rd, her ultimate Blade Eminence summons a greatsword that descends from the sky. In Honkai: Star Trails, it initially looked like Veterans Ultimate would do the same thing, except that it would summon a giant chicken. Similar to Final Fantasy VII's Fat Chocobo summoning style, it's also a high-value meme ability.
Natasha
Natasha Cioara, better known as Raven, is one of the main antagonists in Honkai Impact 3rd and a member of World Serpent. While Natasha is a ruthless mercenary in the game, she also shows a side of kindness and tenderness - especially when it comes to taking care of her children.
In Honkai: Star Trails, Natasha showed her softer side but still tried to shake things up. She is the true leader of the Belobog Underworld peacekeeping force Wildfire and one of the few doctors in the region.
Collapsing Star Trail crossover character
There are also some nods to previous Honkai games in Honkai: Interstellar Railway, and we'll likely see more crossover characters from MiHoYo's previous two Honkai games. Refreshingly, MiHoYo isn't afraid to reinvent certain characters like Natasha and Kafka. We'll keep you posted if we see more Honkai Star Rail crossover characters in the future.
