See Honkai: Star Rail Saber Gameplay From the Fate Event

HoYoVerse shared a new “Keeping Up with Star Rail” YouTube installment focused entirely on how the Fate series’ Saber works when she appears in Honkai: Star Rail. It also started off by teasing she’s one of seven Servants to respond to the call for the first Penaconian Holy Grail War that brings elements of Fate/stay Nigh [Unlimited Blade Works] into the game. This follows a more jovial video promoting the crossover.  Another Servant known as Mr. Reca appeared to discuss her moveset and narrate segments showing her fighting.

The showcase first established Saber is a five-star Destruction character who deals Wind damage. It also highlighted that, in most situations, her sword looks invisible due to Magecraft and her Wind powers. Her Basic Attack is called Invisible Air: Barrier of the Wind King and hits one enemy. However, her Strike Air: Hammer of the Wind King Skill hits one target and the two adjacent to it. She also deals more damage after allies use Ultimates due to her Dragon Reactor Core Talent. This grants her a buff and gives her Core Resonance that she can turn into Energy via using her Skill so she can perform her own Ultimate sooner. Said Ultimate is named after her sword, and Excalibur deals Wind damage to every enemy and then bounce damage to another enemy. 

So in a way, her attack pattern is similar to Blade’s. She hits one with her standard attack. The Skill hits up to three. Then the Ultimate attacks everyone.

Here’s the full Saber “Keeping Up with Star Rail” episode showing the Fate heroine in action in the game.

We should see one for Archer ahead of his debut too.

Honkai: Star Rail is available for the PS5, PC, and mobile devices, and the Fate collab starts on July 11, 2025, then ends just before the launch of 3.7. The Fate/stay Night [Unlimited Blade Works] anime is streaming on Crunchyroll.
