HoYoverse has set a date for its next Honkai: Star Rail livestream. The Version 4.7 Special Program goes out on Friday night in Australia, on YouTube and Twitch.
The program airs at 19:30 (UTC+8) on 30 October, according to HoYoverse’s official HoYoLAB post. In Sydney that is 10:30pm AEDT on Friday 30 October, by our conversion.
Version 4.7 is titled Now, Lay Laughter to All Stars. The post sets up the stream in character, with The Laughter making a livestream debut. It opens: “In the maddening silence, a voice said: “Laugh, and let THEM hear your existence.” And thus, the stars were silent no more, pouring all their radiance into a single burst of laughter.”
You can watch on the official YouTube channel, where the stream is already scheduled, or on Twitch. The stream page is embedded below.
The post does not say what the program will cover. It gives no release date for Version 4.7, no banner line-up and no redemption codes, so we will report those once HoYoverse publishes them.
The Australian App Store listing shows the game as free, published by COGNOSPHERE PTE. LTD., at version 4.6.1, released on 29 September. Our last look at its banners was the Phase II Event Warp.
When we read Apple’s Japanese top-grossing games chart on 28 October, the Japanese release sat 61st. If you play, Friday night is when the official word on 4.7 is due.
