HSR 4.2 Banners Leaks: Silver Wolf SP and Evanescia

Hello, Trailblazers! After HoYoverse wrapped up the Version 4.1 drip marketing, the community’s attention has already shifted to what’s coming next. Based on the most consistent leak discussions so far, Silver Wolf SP and Evanescia are the ones set to step back into the spotlight.

Note: All information below is based on leaks and speculation. Please wait for official announcements for final confirmation.

HSR 4.2 Banners Prediction

Phase 1: SP Silver Wolf (Elation Main DPS)

Phase 2: Evanescia (Physical Elation Main DPS)

 

4.2 New Characters

SP Silver Wolf 

Silver Wolf fans are eating GOOD!

Her usual curled hairstyle has been swapped for a half-tied ponytail, giving her a noticeably more mature and composed look. Combine that with her signature deadpan expression — cold face, cute energy — and it’s hard not to fall in love with her all over again. And the glove… that mechanical-looking right hand is just something else. An upgrade? Or did Silver Wolf go through some crazy experiences in the new world? Either way, it adds a lot of mystery. Her outfit also has noticeably more detail around the chest area.

But what truly set the community on fire is another key piece of information. According to reliable leaks, the anniversary spotlight has reportedly shifted from the previously rumored Evanescia to SP Silver Wolf.

Then a lot of things start to make sense. Why is Silver Wolf the only character whose artwork is deliberately framed? That kind of visual treatment feels far too intentional to be a coincidence — almost like a soft confirmation of “center stage locked.” Combined with her SP status and anniversary-level exposure, it strongly suggests that this isn’t just a form change. She’s being set up for something big, story-wise and beyond.

SP Silver Wolf has reached a level where even Aha would probably nod in respect. All hail the esteemed wolf!

 

 

Evanescia

Rarity: 5-star | Attribute: Physical | Path: Elation

Everything about Evanescia immediately grabs attention.

From her official artwork filled with cherry blossom imagery to her overall vibe, she’s heavily implied to be a Yae Sakura expy (yes, that Yae Sakura from Honkai Impact 3rd).

Leaks suggest Evanescia will be an Elation Path main DPS, and if that holds up, she could easily become the core damage dealer for the entire Elation system. Think of how past meta-defining characters rewrote their Path’s playstyle — Evanescia feels like she’s walking straight into that role. The pre-set team of her would be Evanescia + Yao Guang + EMC + Huohuo.

Her weapon design deserves a special shoutout too. Instead of a katana, Evanescia’s blade looks more like a utility knife, complete with ruler-like markings. At first glance it’s hilarious — but the more you look at it, the more it works. Swapping a traditional samurai sword for a box cutter is such a bold move, and honestly? It gives her real personality.

There’s something weirdly cool about a student-coded character cutting through enemies with what looks like a stationery knife. It’s creative, it’s playful, and it fits the Elation theme perfectly. A utility knife as a weapon? Laughing while committing DPS — very Elation.

A Fox Girl, Pink Ears, and Way Too Much Happiness......

 

Conclusion

Both Silver Wolf and  Evanescia are heading to Planarcadia. After being pretty quiet during the Amphoreus, it looks like the Stellaron Hunters are finally stepping back into the spotlight to carry the plot.
