Honkai Impact 3rd's v8.0 update, In Search of the Sun, arrives January 9th, introducing Durandal's new battlesuit, Reign Solaris, and a host of exciting content.

Reign Solaris: A Dual-Form Powerhouse

Durandal's latest battlesuit is an IMG-type Physical DMG dealer with two distinct forms: Rampager and Skyrider. Rampager unleashes devastating javelin attacks, while Skyrider sees Durandal utilizing a hoverboard for lightning-fast combos. Her ultimate involves a sky-high launch, followed by a powerful javelin strike.

New Gear and Stigma Set

Reign Solaris's power is further amplified with the Valorous Effulgence weapon and its PRI-ARM upgrade, New Voyage, unlocking enhanced QTEs and additional javelins. The Illuminating the Universe stigma set adds a unique flair, showcasing Durandal's parallel universe adventures filled with soccer, bands, skateboarding, and more.

Main Story Expansion and New Events

Chapter VII, Part 2: Bouquets of Unfulfilled Wishes, continues the Ten Shus War narrative on Mars, delving deeper into Coralie's fate and introducing a new character linked to the mystery in Helia's mind.

A new cube puzzle game, featuring Vita and a younger Durandal as Cube-ianka, offers rewards including 60 million Crystals and Source Prisms.

The Countdown: To Sweet Dreams event adds a comedic touch, bringing back familiar characters like Mei, Theresa, Fu Hua, and the Herrscher of Sentience, alongside Griseo, Carole, and Vita. This event includes a boss fight involving dodging falling drumsticks, commanding followers in battles, and even monster training. Rewards include emblems, Crystals, Source Prisms, and Senadina's new outfit, Steering Inequations.
