Instead, we get various tight, medium, and wide shots to make what otherwise would have been a boring yet overwhelming banter feel more tolerable. It’s not just the same two shots of characters going back and forth. The dialogue parts feel dynamic thanks to the various camera shots used. Although I didn’t get to try it all that much during my playthrough. The ‘gacha’ mechanics are also identical. The skill trees are also accessed by tapping on a particular character. The menu layout and character screens look pretty much the same. This seems intentional to clearly tie everything to the grand HoYo-scheme of things. The obvious traces are in the character’s art style. The look and general feel of Honkai: Star Rail is very reminiscent of HoYoverse’s 2020 breakout game, Genshin Impact. In our gameplay, this didn’t seem to affect the general storyline. Like in Genshin Impact, you pick whether the Trailblazer is male or female. Here the main character (MC) is referred to as the ‘Trailblazer’. In Genshin Impact, they’re called ‘Traveler’. Midway through the tutorial, the characters you control will encounter the protagonist. If, like this writer, you grew up playing a good chunk of JRPGs, this gameplay loop will feel very familiar. Once this is triggered, the game immediately shifts to turn-based combat with stunning, flashy animations. This is key in determining the order of turns in combat. Instead, you do a fair bit of exploration in certain stages in a linear fashion.ĭuring exploration, you encounter enemies that you either hit or hit you first. Unlike Genshin Impact, this game isn’t open world. You get a hold of two characters to start and you’re slowly shown how to do things. Honkai: Star Rail ’s first hour or so is pretty much a story-based tutorial of the game. And while it’s available on other platforms, our play time was only on Android. All the screenshots on this article were taken during the first hour or so of the game. We had the chance to play the game ahead of today’s release and here we’ll try to answer the question: Should you play it? It’s the latest game from HoYoverse – makers of the ever popular Genshin Impact. A PlayStation version is also coming but is still under development. Honkai: Star Rail is officially available to download today on the Epic Games Store, PC, Android, iOS.
