This crossover is a dream come true for Fate and Honkai fans, though the missing English voice lines might throw off the vibe a bit. Still, getting a free 5-star Archer is a solid win, even if the banners aren’t exactly showering us with 4-star luck.
Love seeing Fatestay night characters bring their iconic flair to Honkai: Star Rail—though the lack of English VAs is a bummer for immersion. The free Archer is a nice touch, but those banner rates could’ve used a little more generosity
