A new leak from Honkai: Star Rail is giving fans their first look at how Sunday will play following his playable release in the upcoming Version 2.7 update.

Sunday has been the subject of a plethora of rumors surrounding his long-rumored playability in Honkai: Star Rail.

Early leaks have also hinted at his playstyle within Star Rail, suggesting Sunday will be a powerful support character within players' teams. The newest early teasers are now giving fans an in-depth look at Sunday's in-game kit.
Rumor: Honkai: Star Rail Leak Teases New Details About Sunday
A new leak from Honkai: Star Rail is potentially hinting at some special design elements of rumored character Sunday's full release.
Honkai: Star Rail Leak Details Sunday's Gameplay
A new update shared by prominent HoYoverse leaker Seele Leaks is giving fans a detailed description of Sunday's in-game kit. The post begins by confirming Sunday will boast a low Speed stat in Honkai: Star Rail, with his Skill advancing an Ally character's and any associated Summon's actions forward. Sunday's Ultimate will operate similarly to past leaks' descriptions, charging an Ally's energy and converting excess energy into additional energy for that character. The post also suggests that Sunday's support abilities will be based on his own ATK and will feature buffs to overall damage, ATK, and Crit DMG.
Sunday's kit sets him up to be a powerful Support option for a wide variety of team compositions within Honkai: Star Rail. Past speculation has suggested that Sunday will be particularly effective when paired up with "hypercarry" characters, allowing players to focus their efforts into a single character. Sunday is also expected to pair well with his sister, Robin, with both pairing up to provide powerful buffs to Honkai: Star Rail teams. Sunday is currently expected to launch during the first half of Version 2.7, scheduled to release on December 3.
Sunday's Honkai: Star Rail debut is set to be one of the most highly-anticipated character releases in the HoYoverse sci-fi RPG's history. Sunday has already featured prominently in the main story of Penacony, with the former Oak Family leader even appearing as an in-game weekly boss during Version 2.2. Leaks have also suggested that Sunday's boss form will appear in the Apocalyptic Shadow game mode during Version 2.6. Version 2.7 will look to be one of the most exciting patches of Honkai: Star Rail's Penacony cycle when it launches in early December.
