There’s also a new story chapter to enjoy in The Legion Theater. This newest content is coming to the game courtesy of Patch 4.8.
The game is set in a world corrupted by a mysterious energy called Honkai. Protecting the world from the spread of this energy are girls with the anti-Hokai genome known as Valkyries. Honkai Impact 3rd has players take control of a maximum of three Valkyries and lead them to battle. Players can also customize the skills and stats through the use of various equipment.
In The Phantom of the Theater, players get to meet Seele who lost to her nemesis as a result of not being able to fully control her power. Thus, she chose to free her other self in hopes of bringing out her full potential. Throughout this new content, players get to learn more about the bond that exists between these two Seeles.
