Honkai Star Rail 3.2 to Introduce Changes to Banner System for More Player Freedom

Honkai: Star Rail's gacha system is getting a major overhaul, giving players more control over their character pulls. Leaks suggest version 3.2 will introduce a customizable pity system for limited banners, a significant departure from the current system. Instead of the standard 50/50 pull with a fixed pool of characters, players will be able to choose their preferred characters for this pity pool.

According to reports from Sakura Haven, the 3.2 update replaces the current 7-character standard 50/50 pity pool. Players will instead select 7 characters from a larger "Group" to form their personalized pity pool. This means that if you lose the 50/50, you'll receive a character from *your* customized selection, rather than the default pool.

Initially, this "Group" will include the standard 7 characters plus a selection of additional characters. This customizable pity system directly addresses a common gacha frustration: the unpredictable nature of losing 50/50 pulls. By prioritizing desired characters, players gain a better chance of obtaining units that fit their playstyle.

While details remain scarce regarding which characters will be available for selection—past limited characters, current banner units, or new additions—the potential impact is huge. This player-centric change reflects HoYoverse's commitment to improving Honkai: Star Rail's player experience and could set a new standard for gacha games.

The community is buzzing with anticipation for Honkai: Star Rail 3.2's launch, eager to see how this customizable pity system will reshape their gameplay.
