Achievements are nothing new in Honkai Star Rail. Since launch, they’ve been a great way of earning a few Stellar Jades just by naturally progressing in the game.
There are, however, loads of achievements hidden either away in odd corners of the worlds or behind a convoluted series of actions the player must take just for a handful of Stellar Jades.
But true gacha gamers know that five Stellar Jades is better than none so here are 15 hidden achievements and the steps to unlocking them:

According to u/nakdwag on r/HonkaiStarRail, “The first line of the second black screen will determine which result you get. Simply Alt-f4 or close your game on this screen if it is not the result you’re after.” 5. The four first lines begin with: “You are seeing the Xianzhou Yaoqing…” (Weal) “You are seeing the Xianzhou Cangcheng…” (Woe) “You are seeing a swift figure…” (Slack) “You are seeing a white-haired man…” (Doze) |  |
