The grand prize for the global Honkai: Star Rail 3rd anniversary event—a custom 'Itasha' car wrapped in a Level 999 Silver Wolf illustration—has been awarded to a Korean user.

On the 17th, HoYoverse Korea held a ceremony to present an 'Itasha' car to the winner of the Honkai: Star Rail 3rd anniversary event. The vehicle was the grand prize for the global web event 'Aha's Choice: Shaking Up the Planet,' held last April, and was awarded to only one participant worldwide. The fact that the winner was a Korean Trailblazer drew significant attention from the local community. HoYoverse Korea Branch Manager Hwang Ran attended the ceremony in person to hand over the vehicle.

The car features a wrap of the popular character Silver Wolf with a 'Level 999' theme. 'Itasha' (painful car) refers to vehicles decorated with game or anime character illustrations, a style originating from Japanese subculture. Silver Wolf is a central character in the 'Elation' narrative arc.

The event, which launched on April 10, allowed players to participate by completing various missions and writing 3rd-anniversary congratulatory messages. Participants could win various rewards, including in-game items, collaboration merchandise, and large mystery boxes, with the Itasha car serving as the top-tier prize.

The winner has been playing Honkai: Star Rail since its launch. Branch Manager Hwang Ran expressed her gratitude to the users who have been with the game for the past three years, stating, "It is deeply meaningful to personally deliver this one-of-a-kind Itasha car to a Trailblazer." The winner shared their thoughts, saying, "I've experienced many ups and downs while playing the game over the last three years, and this feels like a reward for my deep affection for it. I look forward to creating new memories and continuing to enjoy Honkai: Star Rail for a long time to come."
