Honkai Star Rail made a banging impression in The Game Awards 2023, winning the Best Mobile Game of the Year and giving us a brief look at Penacony, Black Swan, and Acheron. Penacony will be the 3rd Trailblazing world in Honkai Star Rail and will finally progress the main story since Phantylia’s defeat.
At The Game Awards 2023, HoYoverse revealed a new trailer for Penacony as the next trailblazing destination for the Astral Crew. The trailer titled “A Story That Never Grows Dull” also revealed two new characters – Acheron, the Galaxy Ranger, in Penacony, and Black Swan, the Memokeeper of the Garden of Recollection.
In the trailer, Black Swan narrates the Trailblazing escapades of the Astral Crew, starting from Jarilo-VI and moving to Xianzhou Luofu, showcasing Huohuo and Argenti, ending with a fight against the Swarm.
The trailer’s information on YouTube reveals that Black Swan is voiced by Arryn Zech and Allegra Clark has lent her voice to Acheron.
Honkai Star Rail Penacony Release Date
Earlier leaks had hinted that the Honkai Star Rail 2.0 update would feature Black Swan, Acheron, and Hanabi (Sparkle), and the TGA trailer only solidifies that claim. However, we still don’t have a release date for Penacony and have yet to know whether it is coming in the upcoming Honkai Star Rail 1.6 or 2.0 update.
But there is no need to fret about things we don’t know—our heartiest congratulations to HoYoverse for winning the Best Mobile Game of the Year for Honkai Star Rail.
