Honkai: Star Rail‘s release date for PS5 consoles has been a topic of debate since its official launch for PC and mobile devices earlier this year. While the game is expected to arrive for Sony’s current generation of consoles, developer HoYoverse has not yet shared the exact release date. Originally, it was supposed to launch alongside the PC and mobile versions but was postponed, leaving PlayStation 5 owners eagerly awaiting the opportunity to play Honkai: Star Rail on their console.
Since the game’s initial release, there have been updates regarding the PS5 version of Honkai: Star Rail, providing players with more information on when they can expect to play it on a Sony console. Unlike HoYoverse’s other popular RPG, Genshin Impact, Honkai: Star Rail will not be available on PS4 consoles and will only be accessible on the current generation of hardware. It is currently an exclusive game for PlayStation consoles, with no plans for release on Xbox or Nintendo platforms.
With a confirmed release window later this year, the PS5 version of Honkai: Star Rail appears to be more promising than Genshin Impact’s long-awaited Nintendo Switch version. While Genshin Impact was promised to arrive on Nintendo’s hybrid console after its official launch, HoYoverse has yet to provide a release window. Despite approaching its third anniversary, there are still no signs of the Nintendo Switch version. The last update regarding it was in May 2022, according to Go Nintendo, where a PR representative mentioned that the company is still working on it, but no further information was provided.
Honkai: Star Rail’s PS5 version has a concrete and specified release window, giving it more credibility compared to Genshin Impact’s Nintendo Switch version, which has yet to receive any release window at all. The fact that Honkai: Star Rail will launch on a new platform before its first anniversary is also good news. As a live service game, the title’s story and content continue to expand, and while there may be numerous limited-time events, catching up with hundreds of hours of content can be exhausting. Honkai: Star Rail will receive regular updates in the coming years, introducing new characters, advancing the story, and more.
