HoYoVerse is making a splash with back-to-back announcements! Following the reveal of Honkai: Star Rail version 2.6, details about Honkai Impact 3rd version 7.8 have been unveiled.

Planetary Rewind: Honkai Impact 3rd Version 7.8

Launching October 17th, version 7.8 introduces new battlesuits, events, and a wealth of rewards. Leading the charge is Vita's new battlesuit, Lone Planetfarer—a MECH-type Lightning DMG dealer.

Lone Planetfarer boasts a striking peacock feather-adorned Drive Core and two distinct forms. As Lone Traveler, she utilizes her feathered loop for elegant attacks. Activating her Ultimate transforms her into Planet Quaker, unleashing devastating laser beams. She's also protected by Astral Ring Specialization: Rite of Oblivion. The Divine Key Waxing Moon and its PRI-ARM variant, Divine Key Waxing Moon: Incipience, are also making their debut.
