Upcoming ‘Honkai: Star Rail’ Update to Introduce More Challenging Endgame Battles

A fresh leak has surfaced about ‘Honkai: Star Rail,’ indicating that the Memory of Chaos mode will present even tougher challenges for players in the upcoming Version 2.2. In ‘Honkai: Star Rail,’ Trailblazers face off against powerful adversaries in several endgame domains such as Pure Fiction, Simulated Universe, and Memory of Chaos. These areas are crucial for farming materials needed for character and Light Cone upgrades.

Memory of Chaos, a pivotal combat mode within the game, features 12 floors that reset every three weeks, demanding strategic prowess and strong team compositions to defeat successive enemy waves. Players earn various rewards for completing these floors, including Stellar Jades—convertible into Rail Passes—as well as Credits, EXP, Lucent Afterglow, and Jade Feathers, usable in the Jokes Come True shop.

The leak, sourced from HomDGCat, points to an increase in the health points of certain enemies in Memory of Chaos in the next update. Notably, foes like the Memory Zone Meme Heartbreaker, The Ascended, and several others are expected to have enhanced health, adding a layer of difficulty. Additionally, new adversaries such as Gepard will join the lineup, challenging players to adapt their strategies.

Anticipated Enemy Lineup in Memory of Chaos for Version 2.2:

• Ice Out of Space
• Dreamjolt Troupe’s Beyond Overcooked
• Svarog
• Memory Zone Meme Insatiable Vanity
• Aurumaton Spectral Envoy
• Disciples of Sanctus Medicus: Shape Shifter
• Gepard
• Entranced Ingenium: Illumination Dragonfish
• The Ascended
• Argenti
• Memory Zone Meme Heartbreaker
• Past Confined and Caged
• Tomorrow in Harmonious Chords
• The Past, Present, and Eternal Show
• Present Inebriated in Revelry
• Tomorrow in Harmonious Chords

The community has actively debated these changes, with some players advocating for additional floors to further enhance the difficulty, while others discuss the implications for high-tier DPS units like Dan Heng Imbibitor Lunae and Jingliu in the evolving meta.

The update promises not only these enhancements to Memory of Chaos but also introduces new gameplay mechanics, such as bosses with additional layers of Toughness bars. Additionally, ‘Honkai: Star Rail’ Version 2.2 is set to enrich player experiences with new events, explorable areas, and the introduction of Penacony-based characters Boothill and Robin—both five-star units specializing in the Physical element. These characters will feature prominently in the game’s upcoming banners over a three-week period.

Mark your calendars: Version 2.2 of ‘Honkai: Star Rail’ is slated for release on May 8, promising significant updates and exciting new content.
