Infinite wonders await you in this anime masterpiece from the makers of Genshin Impact, MiHoYo. Hop aboard the Astral Express for a space fantasy RPG that pits you and your crew against the most ruthless bosses in the galaxy.
We knew we loved it when: Travelling through diverse worlds, meeting charming characters and using the dynamic turn-based combat system – where you can defeat your foes with powerful and visually stunning ultimate attacks – left us awestruck right the start.
Our favourite moment: During the final battle in the snowy city of Belobog, drawing our burning sword and pointing it at the sky while the Wildfire theme played in the background made our hairs stand on end.
The biggest surprise: The boss battles may be intense, but Honkai: Star Rail also treats you to plenty of lighter moments that will make you laugh out loud. Add to that, secret items and messages hidden in bins, adorable Astral Express conductor Pom-Pom and the game’s incredible soundtrack, and this quickly becomes an unforgettable trailblazing journey.
