Star Rail's new planet Amphoreus has set a high bar for itself

by

The mysterious planet amphorae Honkai: Star Rail eluded many people, even the Aeon of Trailblaze, Akivili. This will be the fourth major world to debut Honkai: Star Rail Version 3.0 and, according to the Black Swan, is virtually unknown and only visible in the light of the Garden of Remembrance's mirrors.




Unlike previous worlds such as Yarylo-VI and Penakonium, there is no limited record of life on Amphorea, except that it is bound by three different Paths. The atmosphere of mysticism surrounding Amphoreus has intrigued not only the Astral Express team, but also avid gamers. Honkai: Star Railadding more expectations about the world. Meanwhile, Amphorae is rumored to be a Greek-inspired planet, so the HoYoverse is expected to provide an impressive level of detail.

Star Rail's Honkai: Amphoreus is poised to break the recent setup pattern

Honkai's latest setting: Star Rail will break the mold set by its predecessors, which could make the game feel like a return to form.

Honkai: Star Rail needs to do everything for Amphoreus


Historically, Honkai: Star Rail always increased whenever a new world or area appeared. In its first year, it managed to grow Xianzhou Luofu with the opening of Scalegorge Waterscape and Fyxestroll Garden, both of which have different map structures and mechanics. But many fans took notice when Penacony was launched in version 2.0, as it became the largest map in the world Honkai: Star Rail to date. Planet of Dreams and Festivities also introduced unique rotating puzzle rooms in Dreamscape, a first for any HoYoverse game.

Because of this, expectations for the design of Amphoreus are definitely high because fans can look forward to a world bigger than Penacony. Aside from rumors that Amphoraeus might be inspired by Greece, the Golden Epic trailer also hinted that the planet suffered after a thousand-year conflict between gods and mortals, and that the heirs of Chrysos must revive the planet. While this may mean that Amphoraeum may be gloomy after the war, it is still possible that it may be filled with living characters and NPCs, as well as beautiful architecture inspired by Ancient Greece. Also, Amphorae are also a type of hot springs in ancient Greece, so the Astral Express crew could find plenty of them around the planet.


Another interesting detail about Amphoreus is that it is associated with the three Paths, with Erudition confirmed as one of them. It's likely that the Memory Lane could play a role in the story as well, especially since Honkai: Star Rail officially introduces the new path in version 3.0. The Garden of Remembrance, a faction that worships the Aeon, Fuli Memory, also keeps a close eye on Amphoraeus, despite not being able to see what is happening on the planet. The Path of Destruction may also be there to wreak havoc on the citizens of Amphorae by building Stellaron into the planet, possibly causing corruption in certain areas.

The supposed three ways of Amphoreus

  • The path of erudition: The path is controlled by the Aeon Nous, an intelligent machine that gives knowledge to those who seek it.
  • Memory lane: An upcoming new path that will allow players to summon independent memsprites that can aid them in battle. As of now, the characters known to officially have Memory powers are Aglaia and Pioneer, with more characters expected to be added to the list.
  • Destruction path: Nanook Destruction watches over the Path of Destruction, and Amphora's Golden Saga trailer shows their hand reaching out from the ground during the conflict.


The mystery surrounding Amphorae could be a force for Honkai: Star Rail, because the developers can have creative liberties to add the HoYoverse flavor of Greek mythology while creating this planet and its stories. HoYoverse previously created their own version of Norse mythology in the Honkai Impact 3rdso there would be nothing surprising in the interpretation of the developers of ancient Greece in the Amphoreus. At the same time, fans could also experience new mechanics by exploring the planet and fighting enemies, just like HoYoverse did with Penacony.
