How to Start Every New Mission in Honkai Star Rail 4.4

Where each Version 4.4 mission begins in Planarcadia, including the Trailblaze story, Arcadia Panorama, and the Antigraft Brickbuster event.

Where each Version 4.4 mission begins in Planarcadia, including the Trailblaze story, Arcadia Panorama, and the Antigraft Brickbuster event.

Version 4.4 adds a fresh batch of missions across Planarcadia, and clearing them rewards Stellar Jade you can put toward Himeko – Nova, Rin Tohsaka, or a later banner. Some are tied to the main story, others sit inside new events and side content that only appear once you reach the right anchor.

Quick answer: Start the Trailblaze mission by talking to Mortnax Blade, Silver Wolf, and Graphia at the Scenery of the Distant Shore Space Anchor in Inkford Hermitage. The other missions unlock at specific anchors in Duomension City and Desolate Maw’s Demonhold, or through the Antigraft Brickbuster event menu.

In Ravages Does the Whistle Sound (main story)

This is the Trailblaze mission for 4.4 and the through-line of the update. It opens automatically once you finish the previous Trailblaze mission, but you can still access and play it even if you skipped ahead earlier.

Teleport to the Scenery of the Distant Shore Space Anchor in Inkford Hermitage. Walk forward toward Mortnax Blade, Silver Wolf, and Graphia, then interact with them to begin the mission.

The mission runs through five sub-quests in sequence, so completing one leads into the next.

  • How I Met Your Father
  • To Be or Not to Be
  • The Comedy of Errors
  • Every Arcadian Corner All At Once
  • Limelight

The Interstellar, departing now! (Arcadia Panorama)

This Adventure mission belongs to the Arcadia Panorama series. The material reward is modest, but finishing it also unlocks the achievement Set Sail, The Interstellar, so it is worth the short detour.

Teleport to the @Gate Space Anchor in Duomension City. When you spawn, turn right and head north for a short distance.
Look to your left for Sampo standing in front of a Wispae. Interact with him to start the mission.

Who Touched My Budget (Antigraft Brickbuster event)

This Adventure mission gates the Antigraft Brickbuster event. You have to start it before you can play the event, and doing so hands out Stellar Jade, Trace materials, Credits, and other rewards along the way.

Open the Travel Log and select Antigraft Brickbuster. On the bottom right, press the “Go” button, which teleports you to the nearest Space Anchor.
Turn left and go up the stairs. Talk to Aventurine at the top to trigger the mission.

Delusional Theater missions

Three missions were added to the Delusional Theater series, and each one begins by entering a large Instacam scattered around the Demon Capital area. Two of the entry points are confirmed, while the third is still being pinned down.

Comic Convention

Teleport to the Shelter Space Anchor in Desolate Maw’s Demonhold. When you spawn, walk south-east until you reach the giant Instacam that leads into the Delusional Theater.

Factory

Spawn at the Howling Ramp anchor in Desolate Maw’s Demonhold. Follow the path until you reach the area filled with Imagenae and Voidranger enemies, then look to your right to find the Instacam that takes you inside.

Library

The starting location for the Library mission is not yet confirmed. Once the correct Instacam entrance is identified, it will follow the same pattern as the other two.


Fate collaboration missions

The second Fate/Stay Night collaboration brings its own content, including the Imagenae: Holy Grail War mission, and those quests arrive when the collab’s part two goes live on July 24, 2026 (Server Time). Until then, only the missions above are active in Version 4.4.

You will know a mission has registered when it appears in your quest log and the objective tracker updates on completion. If a mission does not start, confirm you are standing at the exact anchor listed and that you have progressed far enough into 4.4 to reach that region.
