The officialHonkai: Star RailYouTube channel has revealed an interesting trailer named “Sway to My Beat” that features the upcoming character Robin.

Some fans have noticed that, 15 seconds into the trailer, a couple of comments appear on an imaginary social media platform, left by popular HoYoverse characters such as the Captain fromHonkai Impact 3rdand the Traveler, themain protagonist inGenshin Impact.
At the start of the trailer, viewers can see a hand cleaning Robin’s headpiece. The familiar glove has led many fans to speculate that it belongs to Robin’s brother, Sunday, who has made several appearances in the game. According to recent leaks,Sunday is also expected to join theHonkai: Star Railplayable rosterin the next couple of months. This could mean that one of the upcoming updates could focus on the relationship between the two siblings.
Honkai: Star Rail - Robin’s Kit Explained
Robin is a five-star Physical unit who follows the Path of Harmony, which means that she is a support that can provide various buffs to her party members. According to previous leaks, her main stats will be the ability to increase her ATK and CRIT Rate, as well as CRIT Damage. This means that she is a fairly flexible support, considering that mostDPS units inHonkai: Star Railrely on these stats for their damage output.
Robin’s whole kit inHonkai: Star Railrevolves around her Ultimate, Vox Harmonique, which makes her enter a special state that increases all of her teammates' ATK. After a party member performs an attack, Robin will deal additional Physical damage equal to 120% of her Attack.
