Honkai Star Rail a Genshin Impact Sequel

Is Honkai: Star Rail a Genshin Impact Sequel and in the Same Universe?

Honkai: Star Rail is the next big game from MiHoYo, following on from Genshin Impact, but are the two games linked and in the same universe? Some may think that Honkai: Star Rail is a sequel to Genshin Impact, due to the release order. Here’s the full explanation of how the two games are linked together.

Is Honkai: Star Rail a sequel to Genshin Impact?

Honkai: Star Rail is not a sequel to Genhin Impact.

While the game has the same developer and publisher as Genshin Impact, Honkai: Star Rail has a separate story from Genshin, meaning it can stand on its own. While hardcore Genshin fans may be disappointed by this news, keeping the stories separate makes it easier for newcomers to get involved.

Are Honkai: Star Rail and Genshin Impact in the same universe?

Honkai: Star Rail and Genshin Impact are in the same universe. Both games are in the Honkai universe.

With both games taking place in the same universe, it means it’s possible for crossovers to happen. It’s reasonable to assume that MiHoYo will be taking advantage of Genshin Impact’s success by featuring some of the characters in Honkai: Star Rail.
