Honkai Star Rail's answer to Madoka has already attracted 500k players before release: the mad rush around Puella Magi Madoka Magica Magia Exedra

The influence of miHoYo (HoYoverse) is evident in the development of Puella Magi Madoka Magica Magia Exedra, which draws clear inspiration from the acclaimed Honkai: Star Rail.

Puella Magi Madoka Magica Magia Exedra is currently running a pre-registration campaign, offering players rewards based on milestone achievements. The recent achievement of 500,000 pre-registrations unlocked a five-star "Madoka Kaname Kioku" for participating users.

Meanwhile, Honkai: Star Rail's January 3.0 update introduced Amphoreus, the fourth explorable world, building excitement amongst players. Version 3.0 is anticipated as the game's largest update yet, expected to draw in both new and returning players across all platforms. Further exciting news has been announced for PlayStation players with HoYoverse confirming a physical retail release date.

The Honkai: Star Rail Trailblazer Edition for PS5 includes:

  • A gilded holographic character card set (featuring Firefly, Acheron, Aventurine, Kafka, Blade, Sparkle, Seele, Jingliu, and Robin);
  • A holographic PS5 chibi Trailblazer keychain;
  • An exclusive special PS5 postcard;
  • An in-game redemption code;
  • The Honkai: Star Rail game disc;
  • Three Refined Aether, Stellar Jade, and Credits (these three in-game items are exclusive to this physical edition).
