HSR 4.7 Livestream Recap: Aeon ★ Aha, Banners, a Free Limited 5-Star, Codes and the Release Date

Honkai: Star Rail version 4.7, “Now, Lay Laughter to All Stars”, is announced for 11 November 2026, with Aeon ★ Aha as its new limited 5-star. The date comes from HoYoverse’s own description of the Special Program, which says the version “will release on November 11”. MrPokke does not say the date out loud, but it is on his screen: the Aha card on the highlights page dates the warp from “the Version 4.7 update on 2026/11/11”.

Version 4.6 went live on 28 September, so 4.7 follows about six weeks later. MrPokke calls it the biggest update of the whole Planarcadia arc, and notes that Aha’s warp runs to 22 December: another long patch.

Aha is Elation and Quantum, per the phase 1 warp text further down. The highlights card says Aha grants “ascension to the Path of Elation”: every Elation character gains Innate Traces and new abilities. Aha also leads the new “Aha Instant”, raising its base SPD and performance speed, and holds an Aeonic Authority that the card cuts off mid-sentence.

MrPokke reads that last part as ally damage cutting into a share of the enemy’s max HP, and in the stream itself HoYoverse says Aha’s team can “reduce the max amount of HP enemies can restore”. He calls it the game’s first “HP deflation”, and promises a separate video from the early access server on how much it changes.

The team in the showcase is Silver Wolf LV.999, Aha, Yao Guang and Pearl. MrPokke draws a pull conclusion from it: Sparxie is not in Silver Wolf’s team, so for players choosing between Yao Guang and Sparxie, he thinks the answer is “written on the wall”. He will test it on the early access server before saying more. Aha is not on this site’s tier list and will not be until the kit is in the game.

Three warp cards on the highlights page carry the schedule, and the dates differ in one place that matters: Aha’s warp runs the whole version, while the phase 1 reruns stop on 2 December.

Phase 1 opens with the update. “A Comedy of Stars” features Aha with Asta and Lynx among the 4-stars, and runs to 22 December 2026 at 15:00 server time. MrPokke’s own summary post on screen says “until 23 December”; the warp card says 22 December, and the card is what this page follows.

Next to it, “Indelible Coterie” reruns Silver Wolf LV.999 (Elation, Imaginary), Sparxie (Elation, Fire) and Yao Guang until 2 December at 11:59. MrPokke calls it the Elation flagship rerun, with their signature Light Cones.

Phase 2 starts on 2 December at 12:00 and reruns Acheron, Dan Heng • Imbibitor Lunae and Jing Yuan to 22 December. MrPokke’s view: none of the three is worth a pull this time unless you love the character, and nobody should spend heavily for their Affinitive Eidolons. The banners page on this site lists only windows HoYoverse has announced, and will take these once 4.7 is live.

The Version 4.7 Benefits Overview is the slide MrPokke spends longest on, and it is a long list. Logging in during 4.7 gives one Affinitive Eidolon plus one limited 5-star character, chosen from Acheron, Dan Heng • Imbibitor Lunae and Jing Yuan, with the materials to take that character straight to level 60.

The same slide lists Star Rail Special Pass ×20 for cumulative check-ins, MrPokke’s “20 free pulls instead of the usual 10”, and three web-event items he groups together: the Elation Proxy headwear and Yellow-Purple Style outfit for the Trailblazer, and a commemorative item called “This Way I Can Keep You in the Palm of My Hand!”.

Then two items he singles out. Asat Pramad’s Gift lets you “customise a max-level 5-star Relic and all its affixes”. MrPokke is not sure whether that means choosing where the upgrade rolls land, or only choosing the four substats; if it is the first, he would build an Energy Regeneration Rate rope with every roll in SPD.

Golden Companion Spirit ×1 exchanges for a limited 5-star from the exchange shop, and Jiaoqiu is being added to that shop. MrPokke’s advice is to save it unless you really want one particular character, because nothing in the shop is “too crazy” now.

It is a new system in 4.7: a special Eidolon that gives a character new abilities and combat behaviour, plus an exclusive illustration on the Eidolon screen. You need to own the character and their Affinitive Eidolon to activate it. MrPokke leaves what each of the three does to a separate early access video.

The free login pick covers one of the three. For the other two, MrPokke points to the Phantasia Showstage outfit draw, whose Fashion Invites count toward the “Myriad Symphony” event that awards Affinitive Eidolons, and to HoYoverse’s statement that they can be exchanged with Starlight in future versions. His view is to save rather than spend for them, since he rates the three rerun characters low.

MrPokke does not read the codes out, but they are on screen in his own summary post, in the Benefits Overview frame above: NEVERGONNAGIVE, NEVERGONNAMAKE and AHABLESSYOU. The second one also appears in the Special Program footage he scrubs through.

Livestream codes usually expire within about a day of the stream, so by the time you read this they may already be dead. This site has not redeemed them, which is why they are not on the codes page: it lists only codes a person has redeemed and dated.

The biggest is the second season of Currency Wars, “Voyage Into the Canvas”, made with the copyright holders of the Fluffy comics. The card lists Stellar Jade ×4,000, Variable Dice ×2 and Self-Modeling Resin ×2, then Tracks of Destiny, where the text cuts off; MrPokke reads three.

He calls Currency Wars “the greatest game mode in HSR history” and skips the details, which HoYoverse covers on its own page and in the stream: voyage companions, a “Plot Armor” pick before the boss battles, and Aha as a card that can climb to 7-cost, the 7 visible on the Character Expansion screen he opens.

“The Fluffy Movie: Overheated” is a cooking event in the style of a café game, built around the comic artist Blurry_QR_Colt.

“Interastral Peace Gala: Road to Fame” is a combat event. MrPokke reads the screenshot as a rematch against earlier Anomaly Arbitration bosses, “the greatest boss in HSR” among them.

Relic Recon is back: up to six 5-star +15 Relics for different slots, each with 4 starting substats. MrPokke’s plan is 4-piece Eagle of Twilight Line plus the new Planar Ornament 2-piece. The preview art shows a Dreamlit Actor head piece, so the 4.6 Relic sets look to be on the menu. The double-drop events for Cavern Relics and Planar Ornaments are listed as “coming soon”.

Version 4.7 also brings the game’s first outfit draw, in MrPokke’s words its first “skin gacha”: the “Phantasia Showstage” event, whose top prize is Aha’s outfit “Star Lotto”. It runs from the update to 23 December 2026, 03:59 (UTC+8), and is paid in Fashion Invites, at 100 Stellar Jade each.

The rules come from HoYoverse’s HoYoLAB post, which MrPokke scrolls through. The pool has 8 rewards; each draw gives one, with no duplicates; drawing the outfit gives you everything left in the pool. The first draw is free and the cost then climbs, as does the chance of the outfit.

Add the column up and the worst case is 87 Fashion Invites, which is the figure HoYoverse prints, so 8,700 Stellar Jade. MrPokke first says 8,700, then corrects himself to 8,600 because the first draw is free. The table already counts that draw as 0, so 8,700 stands. He prefers the version 3.7 spending event, where topping up earned the cosmetic outright.

A new Echo of War stage rewards Ravenous Baby Tooth, a new Trace material, and new Divergent Universe stages drop two new Planar Ornaments, “God’s Moment of Joy” and “Subspace ASC Center”. MrPokke guesses the domain is aimed at Aha or at the Zenless Zone Zero characters he expects next.

The new boss is the Divine Skull of Indulgence, “once the brain where Aha brewed schemes”. MrPokke hopes it becomes the next Anomaly Arbitration fight.

Finishing the 4.7 Trailblaze Mission gives a free 4-star Light Cone, “See You at the World’s End!”. MrPokke expects it to work like the free story Light Cone of version 3.7, and to suit the Elation Trailblazer. It is not in this site’s Light Cone list yet, because it is not in the game yet.

MrPokke also reads Aha’s 22 December end date as the start of a Zenless Zone Zero collaboration on 23 December. The highlights page shown in the video does not say that; treat it as his reading until HoYoverse announces it.
