- Companion Mission for Jingliu
- New Jarilo-VI areas – Old Weapon Testing Ground and Pillars of Creation

In addition to this lineup of permanent content, login events, and double drop periods, we’re getting two limited-time events during the 1.4 update to Honkai Star Rail.
Here’s everything we know about these time-limited events in Honkai Star Rail 1.4:
Aetherium Wars event
The Aetherium Wars event starts when the 1.4 update goes live and ends on Monday 13th November. You have to complete the ‘Jarilo VI – Future Market (II)’ Trailblazer Continuation Mission in order to take part in the event. You can still play Aetherium Wars in its Conventional Memoir form from the events menu after it ends, but you won’t get all of the rewards – including the free 4-Star character and chat box.
Aetherium Wars is a video game in the Star Rail universe, and in this time-limited event it moves from online to an in-person fan event called the Interastaral Tournament Festival held on Jarilo-VI.
As for the gameplay, you have to play different ‘Victory Zones’ across Jarilo-VI, Herta Space Station, and the Xianzhou Luofu to collect Aether Spirits and use them in your battles. These spirits are various enemies you’ve fought before – from Belobog guards to Fragmentum monsters, to Warp Trotters.

These Aether Spirits are sorted into three types: mechanical, humanoid, and abhorrent, which act similar to the Elemental type of normal characters. So you have to counter enemies by using the correct type of Aether Spirits. Overlord Aether Spirits are different, as their combat prowess can be improved.
As a reward for completing the required challenges in the Interastaral Tournament Festival, you’ll be able to pick a free 4-Star character! You get to choose between: Pela, Serval, Luka, or Hook.
The other rewards you can earn from the Aetherium Wars event include:
- 2,240 Stellar Jade
- x1 Self-Modeling Resin
- x2 Tracks of Destiny
- Relic Remains material
- ‘Warp Trotter’ Chat Box
Planar Infinity
Planar Infinity starts Friday, 27th of October and ends on Monday 13th November. You have to clear World 5 of the Simulated Universe in order to take part in the event.
This Simulated Universe event is quite similar to the Simulated Universe in general, but there are additional challenges you can complete to receive altered Blessings and Curios, like Infinite Curios, which keeps them around instead of destroying them after a few uses like normal.
After completing normal challenges (like hitting a certain number of destructible items), you enter ‘Herta’s Manic Plain’ with your special buffs. This is your end boss for each floor, and once you complete its associated challenge, you’ll clear the floor. The more floors you clear, the harder each wave of enemies becomes.
The rewards you can earn from the Planar Infinity event include:
- Stellar Jade
- Tracks of Destiny
- Character EXP materials
- Light Cone EXP materials
