HSR 3.5 livestream – start times and where to watch
By Marco Wutz
The HSR titles aren’t getting any less gloomy — Version 3.5 of the RPG will be called “Before Their Deaths” and be revealed in a livestream taking place on August 2, 2025.

Although it’s a foreboding title, we likely know its origin: Since we’ve entered into one final cycle of Amphoreus’ history at the end of HSR 3.4, we’ll get to meet the Chrysos Heirs who’ve long been dead by the time we arrived on the world last time. The first of these will be Cerydra and Hysilens, who will be on the HSR 3.5 banners.
The VAs of Screwllum, The Herta, and Cerydra will lead us through the broadcast alongside Owlbert.

HSR 3.5 livestream – what to expect
The Trailblazer has one final opportunity to set things right in Amphoreus and keep the hateful Lord Ravager Irontomb from being unleashed upon the universe. As we’ll be part of the cycle from the very beginning, Chrysos Heirs such as Cerydra, Hysilens, and Terravox – who’s got a connection to Dan Heng’s patron, the Aeon of Permanence – will make an appearance. And let’s not forget about March 7th, who’s finally made her way into Amphoreus as well.
Cerydra, an ironfisted ruler, and Hysilens, her right hand and military commander, will become playable on the HSR 3.5 banners. From their Divergent Universe boons and official reveals, it’s clear that Cerydra will be a buffer, while Hysilens will be a DoT character.
HoYoverse also announced that the drip marketing for Version 3.6 will happen on the two days following the livestream, so the two characters joining the roster in that update are something of a secret and should also make an appearance in the HSR 3.5 livestream.
