What's New?

New Feature: Game Repair and Cache Update mechanism for Honkai: Star Rail

Similarly to what we already have in Honkai Impact 3rd, we are now bringing Game Repair and Cache Update functionality to Honkai: Star Rail.

New Feature: Notification panel

New Feature: Discord RPC Integration

If you've somehow been stalking us, you may have seen Collapse show up as a supported game on Discord. We've been experimenting with the Discord SDK for quite a while now, but didn't want to add yet another feature to the 1.69.X release lifecycle, so we moved it to 1.70.0! You may have also noticed this feature being prominently displayed in the App Settings page, but it didn't work because we haven't enabled the feature yet, so here it is, in all its glory!

This feature comes toggled "Off" by default, but can be enabled by going into the App Settings and toggling "Show Discord Presence". An app restart is not required, but you may need to go back to the Launcher page for Discord to register Collapse properly.
