Brace yourselves video game fans, "Honkai: Star Rail" is making its way to PlayStation 5 next month! Earlier this year, HoYoverse - the brains behind this exciting gacha game - hinted at a Q4 release for PS5 and now we have a specific date, October 11th. The news was announced during the super cool State of Play event where it was confirmed that PlayStation users could hop on board the Astral Express alongside their PC and mobile gaming friends.

Even though some gamers might not be thrilled about HoYoverse's money-making strategies, it's safe to say that "Honkai: Star Rail" has outdone itself. This outer space RPG has created quite a buzz at VG247 and has already become a favorite for many since its release. For anyone wondering, it's very likely that the PS5 launch and the game's Version 1.4 update will happen simultaneously as the schedule lines up perfectly.

The game initially made its mark on PC and mobile on April 26th, making the PlayStation 5 launch its maiden voyage into console territory. As for other consoles like Xbox or Switch, we're still in the dark. We've seen its sibling game, Genshin Impact, hasn't reached either platform three years after its release, leaving us with some doubts. There are whispers regarding a PS4 version, but unfortunately, nothing solid yet.

In the meantime, "Honkai: Star Rail" is available to play on PC, iOS, and Android, and PlayStation 5 enthusiasts can look forward to joining the fun from October 11th. While waiting, perhaps check out HoYoverse's next game, "Zenless Zone Zero" which is set to debut on PC and mobile, though no release window has been set. Happy gaming!
