Honkai: Star Rail Leak Reveals Exciting Anaxa Preview

Honkai: Star Rail Leaks Reveal Anaxa's Versatile Abilities

Recent leaks from Honkai: Star Rail offer a sneak peek at Anaxa, a highly anticipated new character from the Amphoreus region. These leaks suggest Anaxa will be a utility powerhouse, bringing a unique blend of abilities to the game.

Anaxa, one of several Star Rail iterations of Honkai Impact 3rd's "Flame-Chasers," is poised to debut in a future Amphoreus update. This follows the release of Herta and Aglaea (Version 3.0) and Tribbie and Mydei (Version 3.1). While HoYoverse has been tight-lipped about Amphoreus' upcoming characters, leaks like this one are providing valuable insights.

The Amphoreus region already features Star Rail versions of popular Honkai Impact 3rd characters, such as Phainon (Kevin Kaslana) and Cyrene (Elysia). This pattern of character reimagining, seen with Seele, Bronya, and Himeko, continues with Anaxa.

Anaxa's Gameplay Potential:

A leak from Honkai: Star Rail leaker, Hellgirl, suggests Anaxa's kit will be highly versatile. He's expected to possess abilities similar to Silver Wolf, applying weaknesses to enemies, and delaying enemy turns – a mechanic shared with characters like Silver Wolf and Welt. Furthermore, he'll likely feature offensive capabilities, including defense reduction and damage amplification for himself or his allies. A release date remains unconfirmed.

Anaxa's rumored abilities borrow strengths from several existing characters. His weakness application echoes Silver Wolf's flexibility, while his defense reduction resembles Pela's utility. The turn-delaying mechanic is a familiar and effective tool.

Meta-Shifting Potential:

Anaxa's diverse skillset positions him as a potentially dominant support character. The current meta favors strong supports like Ruan Mei and Robin, with recent additions Sunday and Fugue also gaining popularity. Tribbie, a damage-focused support arriving in Version 3.1, further highlights the importance of support characters. Anaxa's leaked abilities suggest he could significantly impact the Honkai: Star Rail meta upon release.
