Exciting news as a recent leak suggests that Honkai: Star Rail Version 2.5 might introduce a new pet system. Currently, while the game features cute NPC animals like Asta’s dog Peppy, and Tingyun’s bionic dog Diting, players can’t keep these companions outside of specific quests. This new Honkai: Star Rail Pet System is expected to bring a bunch of ways to embrace the world, and appreciate other things aside from its normal gameplay.
Unlike Genshin Impact and Zenless Zone Zero, Honkai: Star Rail lacks a permanent pet system. Though some creatures, like Ruan Mei‘s pets or the Warp Trotter, exist in the game, they stay in one spot and can’t accompany the player on adventures. The potential addition of a pet system could finally change that.
Version 2.5 leaks new Pet System in HSR
You should know that the Honkai: Star Rail 2.5 update might introduce a new pet system, as revealed by the reliable leaker Sakura Heaven. The first pet, Tuskpir, is expected to be the reward for completing the Luminary Wardance main event. Tuskpir is described as a small tapir-like creature with pink fur and wind-like features, and it will follow players around, offering two idle animations as falling asleep or sucking up air.
You will find this addition exciting if you’re a fan of companion systems in other HoYoverse titles. Unlike temporary companions like Peppy and Diting, Tuskpir is placed in a separate “Pet” folder, hinting at a more permanent role.
The leak also shares some lore about Tuskpir, such as its ability to feed on negative emotions, making it a unique addition to the game. If these leaks are true, you should expect the new pet system to debut in the Version 2.5 update, expected to be scheduled for release on September 10, 2024 alongside the new characters, Lingsha, Feixiao, and Moze.
How to get pets in HSR
You should know that getting pets in Honkai: Star Rail will likely start with events. For example, the first pet, Tuskpir, is expected to be available as a reward for completing the Luminary Wardance event in Version 2.5. This means you’ll need to participate in special events to earn new pets and add them to your collection.
As for future pets, it’s speculated that they might also be available in the shop or through other in-game activities. If the pet system becomes popular, you might see a variety of pets added to the shop or offered through different events. Keep an eye on updates for more ways to get your hands on these adorable companions.
As of now, leakers have only confirmed Tuskpir as the first pet in the new system, but you will hear plenty of speculations within the community about other possible additions. You might see Warp Trotter-like pets, similar to how Topaz has Numby, and many fans believe that companions like Peppy and Diting should also be included in the new pet menu.
You will likely notice a growing discussion about what other pets could be added, with players hoping for a variety of choices to accompany them on their adventures. While nothing is confirmed yet beyond Tuskpir, you can expect more details to emerge as the update approaches.
Final Thoughts
In conclusion, the new pet system in Honkai: Star Rail sounds like a fantastic addition. It’s exciting to think about having a permanent companion to follow you around and enhance the game’s experience. While we don’t know all the details yet, the potential for more diverse and interactive pets is something to look forward to.
