Developer Cognosphere has taken the Honkai Star Rail servers down this December 26 (December 27 for those outside the US), and this is to bring patch 1.6 “Crown of the Mundane and Divine.” Players can expect a download to kick off while the game’s unavailable for play, with the schedule listed below.
Honkai Star Rail Down for Server Maintenance This December 26:
The Crew is set to run version update and maintenance soon. The game will be updated to Version 1.6 “Crown of the Mundane and Divine” upon maintenance completion.
During the maintenance, Trailblazers will not be able to log in to the game. Please note the maintenance schedule and plan your gaming time accordingly. The game client must be updated after the maintenance. Due to the large size of the new game resources, we recommended Trailblazers to use a Wi-Fi connection to download the update.
