Gallagher Release Date
Gallagher is going to be a 4-star Fire element character who will make his way in Honkai Star Rail with the 2.1 version update. Since he is expected to be in the first phase of the banner, you can expect to see him in the game on either March 19 or March 20, 2024. These dates are tentative and the final date of his appearance will be confirmed after the 2.1 Special Program.
If he comes in the second half of the game, then you will have to wait for a few more weeks and can expect him to make his way around April 9 or April 10, 2024. His appearance in the game is confirmed, but which banner he’ll be a part of, is yet to be determined.
Gallagher Kit Prediction
Details about Gallagher’s kit have not been revealed by HoYoverse. If credible leakers are to be believed then he is going to be a mixture of a healer and a debuffer and is going to provide his allies on-hit healing. His role is expected to be significant, and it is only going to be unveiled in the 2.1 update.
As far as the current update is concerned, the Honkai Star Rail 2.0 update just began and you can see Black Swan, Misha, and Sparkle in the game. A new playable area named Penacony has also been introduced with multiple explorable events.
