In-game Events
Cosmodyssey, the main event to celebrate the 1st anniversary in Honkai: Star Rail 2.1, is an exceptionally special event where players worldwide can participate together. Similar to a monopoly game, gamers will roll dice to determine the number of steps on a large board, participating in the event in the square they stop at and earning Trailblazer Fund. Then, players will contribute Trailblazer Fund to Pom Pom to receive rewards such as Star Crystals, Plastic Debris, and more.
The second notable gift of version 2.1 is a free 4-star character selection ticket in the Vignettes in A Cup event, appearing at 2:17 in the trailer above. This is a simple beverage mixing event, but for special guests. Honkai: Star Rail gamers will be able to choose one of 8 different 4-star characters to invite to their team, including Gallagher, Misha, Xueyi, Hanya, Guinaifen, Luka, Lynx, and Yukong.
Additionally, we cannot overlook the appearance of World 9 in the Simulated Universe. In addition to providing players with two new accessory sets to farm, it also gives us a copy of Herta, allowing gamers to upgrade her to soul level 5. This is a welcome change as owning Herta's soul is very difficult, as you can only earn it from the character banner.

In addition to the main event above, Honkai: Star Rail gamers will also receive quite a few gacha draw tickets from this 1-year anniversary event. Specifically, we will receive 20 tickets from the week-long login event, and an additional 1,600 Star Crystals sent via mailbox.
Note that the 20 gacha draw tickets that Honkai: Star Rail 2.1 gives to gamers include 10 tickets that we receive per version. Therefore, despite the surprise appearance of 1,600 Star Crystals, the total number of draw tickets we receive is 30, not 40.

Small Events, Online and Offline Birthday Celebrations
Honkai: Star Rail gamers are probably familiar with the game doubling rewards from Artificial Flower Towers or the final challenge of each version. In patch 2.1, miHoYo will also organize this event, but to celebrate Honkai: Star Rail's first birthday, they will triple the rewards instead of just doubling them. This feature applies to both the Simulated Universe and relic stages, so gamers will have the chance to earn good items or, worst case scenario, more junk to upgrade existing accessories and relics.
Finally, miHoYo also reveals a series of online and offline events that Honkai: Star Rail gamers can participate in. These include offline events taking place in many major cities worldwide, spanning Europe, Asia, and America. Currently, miHoYo has named about a dozen locations where these events will take place, but Vietnam is not included yet.
Nevertheless, they also promise to continue announcing more information in the near future, so Vietnamese gamers may not have lost hope entirely. Mytour will update this information to readers as soon as possible, so stay tuned.
