Summary
- Honkai: Star Rail leak reveals upcoming events like Shadow of the Ranger and Mr. Cold Feet's Job in version 2.6.

A Honkai: Star Rail leak has revealed a series of events that will reportedly be released in version 2.6. Events are special activities that occur for a limited time and allow players to earn a bunch of items they can use to improve their units. In Honkai: Star Rail, these festivities usually span a few weeks and offer desirable rewards like Stellar Jades, upgrade materials, and even characters.
The aim of Honkai: Star Rail events is to increase player engagement and present some challenges Trailblazers can complete to earn various rewards. These activities engage players through the long term and offer some unique content. However, it may be difficult to keep Trailblazers engaged in the game by just releasing events because they are temporary. Players can neither join an event nor obtain its rewards once it expires.
A new Honkai: Star Rail leak from Sakura Haven has revealed several events, such as Shadow of the Ranger, Mr. Cold Feet's Job, and Sound Hunt Ninjutsu, which will arrive in version 2.6. According to its description, Sound Hunt Ninjutsu will require players to serve as a band manager and complete music challenges to earn a Light Cone. Shadow of the Ranger, on the other hand, will allegedly be dedicated to Honkai: Star Rail's Boothill. Details about the event are scarce, but players can expect to see Boothill and other Galaxy Rangers while completing it.
Honkai: Star Rail Version 2.6 Events
- Shadow of the Ranger
- Mr. Cold Feet's Job
- Sound Hunt Ninjutsu
During the Mr. Cold Feet's Shop event, Honkai: Star Rail's Sampo will reportedly release some commerce merchandise items players can unlock within a given time. It's unknown how players will collect the components required to receive items. As per the leak, all three events will be available in version 2.6 next month.
Speaking of events, a Honkai: Star Rail leak previously revealed that the Herta Store will sell event-exclusive Light Cones in version 2.6. That means players will be able to purchase weapons that were once given as an event reward, such as Solitary Healing, Eternal Calculus, and Hey, Over Here. According to the leak, the Herta Store will also sell materials players can use to upgrade these Light Cones.
In addition to events and an update to the Herta Store, Honkai: Star Rail's version 2.6 will introduce a new character, Rappa, who follows the path of Erudition. The upcoming unit will have a five-star rarity and use Imaginary as her element. She will become playable in the first phase of the next version.
