Additionally, Uncle G7TDD8tv revealed that Sunday will launch in the first half ofHonkai: Star RailVersion 2.7’s Warp banner, while Tingyun will be in the second half.

ManyHonkai: Star Railfans expressed excitement over the news, saying that they couldn’t wait to see Sunday and Tingyun’s new form in action. Some were also hoping that HoYoverse would finally push through with this alleged plan because they’d been waiting for Sunday’s release since the Penacony arc.
Honkai: Star Railhas yet to cap off the current Xianzhou Luofu arc, so it’s possible that Tingyun might make an appearance in the near future. Plus, with the upcoming release of5-star Penacony character Rappa, there might also be a new Penacony mission or side quest soon, which might give the Trailblazer a chance to encounter Sunday again.
