【HSR 4.5】Swimsuit Outfits for Robin & Aventurine! Upcoming Banner Schedule Overview
《Honkai: Star Rail》 has officially brought the second half of the year's main trailblaze mission to Amphoreus, and Version 4.5 will directly launch the Summer Beach Vacation chapter! With crystal clear seas, sandy beaches, and lively resort parties, the story sets a relaxed and cheerful tone.

The newly revealed 「SP Robin」 and 「SP Aventurine」 have completely overhauled their Elements and Paths, completing a massive shift from their original kits to anchor the brand new Remembrance and Elation team archetypes. For Trailblazers who haven't caught up with the full details, this guide will break everything down at once, along with the complete banner roadmap post-Version 4.4.
For the full breakdown, make sure to tune in to the 「Version 4.4 Special Program」 on July 3rd, which will provide the most detailed first-hand details.
I. New Dual SP Characters, Summer Swimsuit Outfits
1. SP Robin · Summeretto
- Element & Path:Wind | The Remembrance
- Design:The original**「Robin」**is an elegant and dignified opera singer on stage, wearing a long white and purple gown with a luxurious fur collar. In contrast, her SP Swimsuit version features a blue and white two-piece swimsuit, with her braided hair blowing freely in the sea breeze. Her ornate crown has been simplified into a delicate star-and-moon hair accessory. Walking barefoot in the shallows with a floral mesh wrap around her waist, her bright and sunny smile radiates pure summer energy, fully breaking away from her formal attire.
- Kit & Role:Expected to join the Remembrance team archetype, serving as a direct upgrade to the Remembrance Trailblazer.
2. SP Aventurine · Waveflair
- Element & Path:Imaginary | The Elation
- Design:Compared to the original**「Aventurine」**as a suit-clad IPC senior executive in casinos, this vacation look is completely laid-back: an unbuttoned printed Hawaiian shirt paired with light-colored beach shorts, sunglasses resting on his head, relaxing on a lounge chair with a drink. Shedding all heavy formal suits and wearing only minimalist jewelry, he transforms from a high-stakes gambler into a chilled beach lounger, oozing absolute relaxation.
- Kit & Role:Expected to function as a Support or Sustain unit within the Elation team archetype.
II. Post-Version 4.4 Banner Schedule Overview
Version 4.4 will focus heavily on Part II of the 《Fate/stay night [Unlimited Blade Works]》 Collab, introducing two limited collab characters,**「Gilgamesh」**and**「Rin Tosaka」**, alongside the brand new**「SP Himeko」**, making it a perfect transitional version packed with collab rewards and new faces. Version 4.5 reaches the climax of the Amphoreus summer theme, dropping the massive dual summer swimsuit SP characters—**「SP Robin」**and**「SP Aventurine」**—who will shake up the meta with overhauled Paths, paving the way for the new Elation Follow-Up Attack (FUA) core team. Subsequent Versions 4.6 and 4.7 will flesh out the Elation archetype by adding dedicated supports and new members of the**「Ten Stonehearts」**, keeping the new Elation meta long-lasting and viable.

III. Pulling Priorities & Stellar Jade Advice

- Waifu/Husbando Lovers:If you love the collab characters, feel free to drop some pulls. The collab banner will stay up for an extended duration, so there is no need to rush on day one.
- Team Completion:After securing the dual SP characters, hold onto your remaining Jades and pick up**「Nihilux」**and**「Pearl」**in Version 4.6 to complete the ultimate team composition.
Trailblazer Top-Up Tip:
This summer swimsuit banner lineup is absolutely packed with top-tier units. If your Stellar Jade reserves are running low, it is highly recommended to plan ahead. To comfortably guarantee both dual SP characters and their signature Light Cones, you can complete an [HSR top up] via official partner channels to secure Oneiric Shards, making the most of the double-bonus reset to easily sweep the 4.5 banners!
Summary
The roadmap for the Amphoreus summer versions is now crystal clear, with the 4.5 dual SP banners shaping up to be the most critical pool of the second half of the year.**「Robin」**and**「Aventurine」**not only receive stunning swimsuit outfits but also undergo a massive redesign in their Paths, Elements, and gameplay. Moving away from their original Support and Shielder roles, they will single-handedly anchor the brand new Elation FUA archetype.

FAQ
Q1: Are the SP characters completely separate from their original versions?
A:Absolutely! 「SP Robin」 and **「SP Aventurine」** are brand new limited 5-star characters. They do not share Eidolons, Traces, or talents with their original forms; they are treated as entirely independent character cards.
Q2: Will the 4.4 Fate collab characters be added to the Stellar Warp permanent banner?
A:Based on previous collab rules, 「Gilgamesh」 and **「Rin Tosaka」** are time-limited event characters. They will not be added to the permanent pool after the event ends, meaning they can only be acquired during potential future collab reruns.
Q3: Will both SP characters share the same Warp Event banner?
A:No, the official schedule has confirmed they will be split into two separate phases: 「SP Robin」 in Phase 1, and **「SP Aventurine」** in Phase 2. Players can comfortably map out their Stellar Jade savings without worrying about pulling two new 5-stars simultaneously.
