Honkai: Star Rail Leak Shares Early Details About Anaxa

A recent leak from Honkai: Star Rail offers early hints about the gameplay mechanics of Anaxa, one of Amphoreus’ most anticipated new characters. The build-up to Amphoreus’ release has introduced several new characters, many of whom are Star Rail variants of Honkai Impact 3rd’s popular “Flame-Chasers.” Anaxa is expected to debut alongside these familiar faces, boasting a versatile kit that could significantly impact the game’s meta.

According to a leak shared by Hellgirl on the Honkai: Star Rail Leaks subreddit, Anaxa’s abilities will bring a range of utility to team compositions. His rumored kit includes applying Weaknesses to enemies, delaying their actions, reducing their defense, and adding extra damage to his or his allies’ attacks. These features make him a flexible addition, capable of both support and offensive roles.

In addition to his gameplay mechanics, Anaxa’s design is rumored to incorporate elements inspired by the Flame-Chaser lore from Honkai Impact 3rd. This connection may include visual nods to the Flame-Chasers’ aesthetic, alongside thematic references that tie him closely to Amphoreus’ Greek and Roman-inspired world design. Such attention to detail could further enhance Anaxa’s appeal to fans of both Honkai Impact 3rd and Honkai: Star Rail, creating a bridge between the two games and their shared universe.

Anaxa’s abilities seem to combine aspects of other fan-favorite characters. His Weakness application mirrors Silver Wolf’s mechanic, while his DEF reduction aligns with Pela’s utility. The delay effect echoes the mechanics of characters like Welt, further highlighting his potential as a versatile support.

His rumored abilities could place him among the most impactful support characters in Honkai: Star Rail. The meta has long been dominated by strong supports like Ruan Mei and Robin, while newer characters like Sunday and Fugue have also made their mark. Anaxa’s addition, with his unique mix of abilities, might bring a fresh dynamic to team-building strategies.

As Amphoreus unfolds, Honkai: Star Rail continues to blend familiar elements with innovative gameplay options. Fans eagerly await Anaxa’s official announcement to see how he will fit into the ever-evolving roster of the game.
