When was Honkai Star Rail Hysilens' release date?
Hysilens joined the playable roster during Honkai Star Rail's version 3.5 update, on August 13, 2025. She is the ninth Chrysos Heir to join the roster during the Trailblazer's journey across Amphoreus.
Who is Hysilens?
Hysilens is a five-star physical element character who follows the path of Nihility. These pathstriders excel at afflicting their enemies with debuffs, and as Hysilens is a physical character, she can inflict physical DoT on her opponents. She shares her element and path with Honkai Star Rail's Luka, and works wonders with Honkai Star Rail Kafka's newly buffed kit.
Honkai Star Rail fans were split on whether we'd get Hysilens as a playable character, as the main story quest confirmed that she died before the Astral Express landed on Amphoreus. Regardless, according to her official introduction, she is the Knight Commander of Okhema, Phagousa's coreflame holder, and a former resident of Styxia.
Hysilens is known for her musical talent and is often depicted holding a violin. She stood alongside Honkai Star Rail's Cerydra to defend Okhema in the past, supporting her rule, which led to the end of the Chrysos War and the beginning of the Flame-Chase Journey.
Who are Hysilens' voice actors?
Hysilens shares a lot of voice talent with other Hoyoverse games, as her Japanese voice actor, Iwami Manaka, is known for voicing Genshin Impact's Amber and Zenless Zone Zero's Piper. Her English voice actor is Rosie Day, who is best known in the gaming world as A in Xenoblade Chronicles 3.
Her Chinese voice actor, Fumeng Ruowei, voices Genshin Impact's Mizuki, and Cecilia and Misteln Schariac in Honkai Impact 3rd. Hysilens' Korean voice actor, Oh Eun-soo, is best known as Kirara in Blue Archive.
