The officialHonkai: Star RailX account has announced a brand-new five-star character named Mydei. According to the post, Mydei, also known as Mydemius, is the crown prince of the mist-shrouded city of Kremnos, destined to walk a path drenched in blood and madness and bearing the divine authority of the Land of Fury. Mydei is a relentless warrior, unlike many others in theHonkai: Star Railuniverse, with a main goal to seek the Coreflame of Strife and reclaim his homeland. However, to achieve this, he must endure countless deaths and challenge the gods to ascend beyond his mortal abilities. This personality makes Mydei a perfect fit for the Path of Destruction, which is usually reserved for powerful DPS units with decent sustain.

Even though Mydei’s splash art and overall design hint that he’s a Fire user, the official introduction confirms that he will actually dealImaginary damage inHonkai: Star Rail. Regarding his appearance, players have already started speculating that HoYoverse was inspired by King Gilgamesh, an antagonist from the popular Japanese science fantasy franchise Fate. Many comments express hopes that Mydei will have a similar power level to Gilgamesh.

As for Mydei’s release date, the timing of his announcement strongly suggests that he will arrive inHonkai: Star RailVersion 3.1. Tribbie and Mydei will likely be divided into two banner cycles, provided that HoYoverse does not reveal any newfive-star units forHonkai: Star Railin the next few days.

Based on their announcement order, Tribbie is expected to be featured in the first part of the update, while Mydei’s banner should drop in the second banner cycle. To learn more about Mydei’s in-game kit, players will probably have to wait for the next beta phase, which could take another week, considering thatHonkai: Star RailVersion 3.0is expected to launch around January.
