Star Rail Runs in Native 4K on PS5

In addition to outlining all the content coming to Honkai: Star Rail on October 11th with Version 1.4, miHoYo also revealed new details on the PS5 version. Releasing on the same day, the free-to-play RPG will run in native 4K and utilize the console’s SSD for faster loading speeds. Check out the Developer Interview video below.

The developer also discusses the creation of several landscapes, including the Scalegorge Waterscape in the Xianzhou Luofu. It also revealed that Aetherium Wars, the new Pokemon-style mode coming in Version 1.4, will be updated over time with new characters and adversaries. If it’s anything like the Simulated Universe, this may be a worthwhile side activity for fans.

Honkai: Star Rail is available for PC, iOS and Android – check out our review here. The PS5 version has crossed one million in pre-registrations and could become as successful as Genshin Impact. Stay tuned for more details on Version 1.4 in the meantime.
