Recently, Star Rail announced a new character "Cerydra," a character from the city-state of "Ohma." So when will Cerydra be released in Honkai: Star Rail? How does she perform in battle? These are also the most concerning aspects for everyone. Therefore, this article will provide a detailed explanation, giving a general introduction to the character's release date, background, path attributes, and combat style.

According to current leaks, Cerydra is expected to be released in the second half of version 3.5, with the gacha pool opening around late August to early September 2025. If you plan to pull for this character, you should start saving stellaron to prepare for her release.

Cerydra, born of the Golden Lineage, is the supreme ruler of the North Empire of Omphalos, known as the "Empress of Law," "Commander-in-Chief," or "Caesar," among other titles. She wields the "Law" firebrand and summoned many Golden Lineage members on the "First Pyre Journey." Dressed in splendid attire, wearing a crown, and holding a chess piece scepter (with the King's coat in the other hand), she exudes a regal aura, symbolizing her role in upholding order and judgment.

In the game, Cerydra is positioned as a five-star Wind attribute "Harmony" support character, specifically designed to enhance the team's rhythm and boost the main DPS. Her skill set revolves around granting allies the "Promotion" status, which provides additional turns, allowing the output characters to act multiple times.

The Promotion mechanism makes her a "turn-guiding" support: triggering an extra turn upon first action, sustaining output after reaching a certain threshold of attacks or skill uses, and even gaining another turn after the round ends. Meanwhile, Cerydra can also enhance critical hit rates and normal attack damage, restore technique points, thus balancing team buffs and resource accumulation.

This concludes the introduction about when Cerydra will be released in Honkai: Star Rail and her in-game performance. As a five-star Wind Harmony support character for the second half of version 3.5, she excels at enhancing the efficiency of the main DPS's turns through the core mechanism of "Promotion + Extra Turns," making her particularly suitable for the White Nihility system.
