Honkai Star Rail: How to change server or region?
Changing the in-game server region deems a restart as you cannot do so once you start your playthrough. Just like in Genshin Impact, Honkai Star Rail offers players the ability to change their server region on the loading menu before they dive into the game’s world to slay enemies. All you need to do is quit the game and then launch it again. Now, after the Honkai Star Rail screen, you will be taken to the game’s loading menu where the option of Start Game will be present. Beneath that, you will notice an option that will display the server name you are currently on. Simply click on that option, and choose between any of the servers of your choice. Do note that the game automatically chooses the best server according to your location once you boot it for the first time, so altering the server region might result in high ping.
Also, progress made in one server doesn’t carry over to the other, so make sure you keep this in mind. Here are the server options available in Honkai Star Rail-
- America
- Aisa
- TW, HK, MO
- Europe
Looks familiar? Well, Genshin Impact also offers these server regions to its player base. Anyways, after selecting the server of your choice, click/tap on the Confirm button. Now, select Start Game, and you will be loaded into the server of your choice. That being said, now you know how to change the server or region in Honkai Star Rail.
