When is the Honkai: Star Rail Version 1.1 livestream?Long-time fans will know that HoYoverse love a livestream — or “special program” to use their preferred terminology — to get players hyped for what’s next in their games. As we all suspected,Honkai: Star Railwill be no different, with the inaugural Special Program for the upcoming Version 1.1 taking place on Friday, May 26th.

HoYoverse livestreams are a reliable source of news for upcoming character and weapon banners, in-game events, and other happenings that put the “live” and indeed the “service” into their live service titles. HoYoverse have also made a tradition during their streams of giving out three very time-limited codes which players can redeem for in-game freebies if they act fast enough, so it’s well worth tuning in or at least catching up with the VOD on the same day! So read on below for information on when and how to watch theHonkai: Star RailVersion 1.1 livestream, as well as some idea on what to expect from the show.
