How to Start Playing Honkai: Star Rail on PS 5
Get ready, Trailblazers! Like its PC and mobile counterparts, this version is entirely free to play, offering an expansive universe without initial costs. A stable internet connection is required to download and play. You won’t need a PlayStation Plus subscription to enjoy the core gameplay or use the Friends function, opening up the experience to all PS5 users.
It’s important to note that server transfers aren’t possible. An account created on the American server, for instance, cannot be moved to the European server. The good news is that Honkai: Star Rail fully supports cross-platform play. You can seamlessly switch between PC, mobile, and PS5. To enable this, link your PlayStation Network (PSN) account with your HoYoverse account. Be careful to link the correct accounts!
Claim Honkai: Star Rail Pre-Registration and Login Rewards
Just like the PC and mobile versions, expect ongoing free content updates for the PS5 edition of Honkai: Star Rail, keeping the adventure fresh. The game also supports the PS5 trophy system, adding an extra layer of challenge and accomplishment for dedicated players.
To celebrate the PS5 launch, a pre-registration event is underway. Signing up ensures you’ll receive news about the console version, and it also unlocks tiered rewards based on participation. A milestone of 1 million pre-registrations unlocks the 4-star Light Cone “The Seriousness of Breakfast (Erudition).” Smaller milestones include credits (100,000 registrants), adventure logs (300,000 registrants), and condensed aethers (600,000 registrants). Don’t forget to claim your 4-star Cavern Relic Musketeer of Wild Wheat set as a login bonus in your in-game mail when you first start playing!

Come With Me, Take The Journey Event Is Open for Inactive Honkai: Star Rail Players
The “Come With Me, Take The Journey” event, designed to encourage lapsed players to return, is active until the PS5 release of Honkai: Star Rail. This event allows current players to invite up to three inactive friends back to the game, rewarding both parties.
To be considered a returning player, the individual must:
- Have been inactive for 14+ consecutive days
- Be Trailblaze Level 10 or higher
- Have completed the Jarilo-VI “Long Wait for the Blade’s Edge” mission
- 40+ days must have passed since the last activation of the Starlit Homecoming campaign
Inviting qualifying players provides rewards. Returning players also benefit from bonuses. Don’t miss this chance to reunite with friends and explore the Astral Express together!
How to Claim the Rewards From the Honkai: Star Rail Returning Players Campaign
Successfully inviting returning players requires a few steps to claim your rewards. First, activate the in-game mail function by completing “The Blue – A Moment of Peace” mission. Then, claim your prizes from your in-game mailbox.
Remember to collect them within 30 days, or they will expire. Players can participate in the event only once. Repeated activations of the Starlit Homecoming campaign will disqualify participants. Event start and end times align with the Starlit Homecoming campaign. Be aware that if a returning player restarts the campaign and the inviter doesn’t receive their rewards, mission progress will reset for the returning player. Also, completing the Simulated Universe Swarm Disaster doesn’t count towards overall Simulated Universe completion for the event.
