The Honkai Star Rail banner schedule provides plenty of useful information for players, as it confirms what warp events are currently in progress and shows the rewards you can unlock by participating in them, as well as looking to the future and revealing which upcoming banners we can expect to see in later events with the help of leaked details and official teasers. There's a lot to take in, so to make it easier to digest I've rounded up everything you need to know right here. The latest banners went live on January 14 for the launch of the 3.0 update phase 1, and feature a bumper selection of prizes with The Herta (Erudition: Ice), Feixiao (The Hunt: Wind), Lingsha (Abundance: Fire), and Jade (Erudition: Quantum) as the four 5-star characters available, though as always there are many other rewards to be claimed.

These banner or warp events make up the gacha element of Honkai Star Rail, where players have the opportunity to win additional Light Cones and new characters to add to their team, on top of collecting handy consumables and materials. By spending warps – or 'pulls' as they're often referred to – a random reward is granted from a predetermined set of prizes, and while certain results are guaranteed after a specified amount of warps have been used, the results are generally based on luck.

If you use up all of the passes you currently have available for warps then you can exchange Stellar Jade and other items to receive additional passes, so it's worth looking out for fresh Honkai Star Rail codes and claiming any that are currently active to increase your supplies. To find out what's happening now and next, here's the lowdown on the banner schedule in Honkai Star Rail.
