Honkai Impact 3rd 5.6 update is set to be released on April 7th, along with new Battlsuits and Elysian Realm additions. The Flame Chasers are being introduced to players all over the world as the story shifts away from Kiana and her friends and toward the Elysian Realm.

Honkai Impact 3rd v5.6 is set to release on PC, Android, and iOS on April 7. Players can expect maintenance to take place from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. (GMT +8), as with previous updates.

The next version, titled Elysian Reverie, will include a new Battlesuit, weapons, Flame Chasers, and updates to the Elysian Realm hub.

Everything to expect from Honkai Impact 3rd 5.6 update

1) New SP Battlesuit and weapon

The most recent SP playable Valkyrie is a Flame Chaser from a previous era. She goes by the name Pardofelis (or Phyllis) and owns a shop in the Elysian Realm. Her playstyle will be centred on IMG and Ice melee support.

Version 5.6 will also see the addition of a new weapon type that resembles Chakram. Pardofelis will be the first to wield this, with many more Valkyries to follow.

Purana Phantasma, her recommended gear, will be available through a separate banner, and players can craft a free version called Gilded Librae. Bastet, Phyllis’ recommended Stigma set, will also be available through the supply banner.

2) New Flame Chasers and accessible Hub

In addition to the existing eight Flame Chasers and their memories in the Elysian Realm, players will meet the remaining five members. However, only one of them will be playable in v5.6. These are their names:

  • Number 3: Aponia (Disciple)
  • Number 5: Vill (Helix)
  • Number 9: Kosma (Daybreak)
  • Number 11: Griseo (Stars)
  • Number 13: Perdofelis (Reverie)

Beginning April 7, players will be able to enter the Elysian Realm and explore the main lobby. Weekly mission rewards will be replaced with Challenge points, and Difficulty Factors will be replaced with Difficulty Coefficients.

From the start of v5.6, Rita’s Fallen Rosemary and the new Pardofelis will be introduced to the Elysian Realm roster.

3) Events

Version 5.6 will feature a rerun of the old event Empyrean Legends. This is similar to the Chibi shooter from the Anniversary event. Players can collect currencies here to buy Pardofelis fragments, Crystals, Selee Stigma, and outfits.

Another event planned for 5.6 is Starless Nights, the details of which are unknown. Crystals, Pardofelis fragments, and Honkai shards will be awarded as rewards.

4) Outfits

Raven and Delta’s outfits will be available with the release of v5.6. Raven’s outfit is called Tipsy Hour, and it will be available in the mall via B-chips.

Delta’s outfit, 8-bit Fever, will be available for free as part of a limited-time event in the Elysian Realm.
