New Honkai: Star Rail Anime Short Released Ahead of Concert

Ahead of the debut of the Honkai: Star Rail Concert 2025 Global Livestream, HoYoVerse shared an anime short of characters being used to promote the event. It features player avatars Caelus and Stelle taking photos of all of the four-star and five-star units as they prepare for the performance. The stream of the concert itself airs at 4am PT/7am ET on May 3, 2025. 

The Honkai: Star Rail concert anime short begins with Acheron heading onto a stage in a fancy dress, where she finds cardboard standees of Caelus and Stelle. From there, we see Jing Yuan in makeup. Stelle shows up to take photos of him. After that, Caelus is taking pictures of Castorice in a setting filled with decorative butterflies. Dr. Ratio appears for photos with Stelle after that. Then, we see Caelus take pictures of the five-star version of The Herta with some of her four-star Herta dolls. Sunday’s segment with Stelle showed up after that. Things close out with Stelle staying up to edit the photos, before we see all of the featured characters for the concert together.

Here’s the Honkai: Star Rail concert anime short featuring characters that appeared in the game from launch until now. 

You can watch the global stream below:

There is also a sold-out Honkai: Star Rail concert coming to Irvine, California. There will be performances at 3pm PT and 7pm PT on May 10, 2025. A free voice actor panel will also be held that same day. 

Honkai: Star Rail is available for the PS5, PC, and mobile devices.
