How to preload Honkai Star Rail on PS5

Star Rail patch preloading is usually free, but you actually have to purchase a “pre-order” pack to preload Honkai: Star Rail on PS5. However, we wouldn’t recommend purchasing this bundle as it’s surprisingly poor value for the £9.49 it sells for.

However, if you really want to pre-download Star Rail on PS5, you can go to the store on your PS5 console or the PlayStation website and search for “Honkai Star Rail” and then click the “Pre-Order” button. Once you’ve completed your purchase, you’ll be able to preload the game on your PS5.

Remember, this is only for purchasing the pre-order package that includes the preload, as Honkai: Star Rail is a free download when it launches on PS5.

How Honkai Star Rail PS5 cross-save works

If you want to continue saving Star Rail for PC or mobile on PS5, you’ll simply need to log into your HoYoverse account on the PlayStation version of Star Rail when it launches. If this doesn’t work right away, you may also need to link your PlayStation account to your HoYoverse account. You can do this on the official HoYoverse website.

Just keep in mind that this has to be the account you currently play Star Rail with, so it’s worth checking your in-game login details and your connected accounts on the official HoYoverse website if you have more than an account in use. . Make sure you also select the same server on all platforms, as you can only continue saving Star Rail if you are playing on the same server.

If you later want to save a PS5 file to your mobile or PC, simply log in to the same HoYoverse you are using on PS5.
