When's the Honkai Star Rail PS5 releasing? What about the PS4? We asked around! Here is everything we could find out!
Honkai Star Rail has turned out to be a massive success for miHoYo. On release, the game had over 20 million pre-registrations more than double the pre-registrations that their previous title Genshin: Impact had reached.
Update 15/9
We now know the game will come to PlayStation 5 on October 11.
Currently, the game is available on mobile platforms such as Android and iOS and on Windows PCs.
As of writing, there is no concrete date for a release on any of the big consoles but there has been some rambling and we can make some guesses!
Honkai Star Rail PS5 and PS4 Q4 2023
**UPDATE!**
It was revealed at the Summer Games Fest that Honkai Star Rail will arrive on PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 sometime in Q4 2023.
So expect it to be part of the 1.3 or 1.4 Update. We'll have more info on it as soon as it'll be available!
Honkai Star Rail Cross-Progression on Console
If you have already started playing on a PC or Mobile platform, you'll be able to play with your existing account on the console as well.
Since all progression is stored online and is tied to miHoYo's online services, it's as simple as logging in from another device.
That means you can play Honkai Star Rail on iOS and Android platforms on the go and on your PC and hopefully soon your PlayStation very easily.
To play the game on PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5, you simply have to tie your PSN account to your HoYoverse account.
