Looking for Honkai Star Rail codes that actually work right now? HoYoverse hands out redemption codes that convert straight into free Stellar Jade — the premium currency you spend on Warps — plus Credits, Traveler's Guides, Fuel and event materials. The catch is that most codes expire within days of a livestream, so the "150 working codes!" lists you'll see elsewhere are mostly dead. This page lists only the codes verified live against multiple independent trackers as of October 17, 2026 (09:50 UTC), shows you exactly how to redeem them on the web or in-game, and keeps a dated record of what has already expired so you don't waste time typing in dead codes.
Quick answer (TLDR): As of October 17, 2026, seven Honkai: Star Rail codes are confirmed active: PEARLAPPRAISE, RT4BPNA8FBS3, OMEGA, CREATIONNYMPH, FAREWELL, IFYOUAREREADINGTHIS, and the permanent new-player code STARRAILGIFT. Together the limited ones are worth roughly 290 Stellar Jade plus Credits, Fuel and materials. Redeem them fast at hsr.hoyoverse.com/gift or in-game under the pause menu — the version-specific codes (OMEGA, CREATIONNYMPH, FAREWELL, IFYOUAREREADINGTHIS) came from the Version 4.6 "Dance With the Beast Before Moonrise" Special Program and typically die within a week or two. HoYoverse only distributes codes through official channels; there is no "Stellar Jade generator," and any site promising unlimited Jade is a scam. Last checked: October 17, 2026, 09:50 UTC.
What are the active Honkai Star Rail codes right now? (October 2026)
Below are every Honkai: Star Rail code confirmed working as of October 17, 2026. Each one was cross-checked against at least two independent trackers (Pocket Tactics, PCGamesN, Driffle and GachaFocus), and codes that any source flagged as expired have been excluded even where another list still showed them — when sources disagree, we treat a code as dead. Rewards are listed as the majority-reported value; exact drops can vary slightly by region and account progress.
| Code | Reward | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| STARRAILGIFT | 50 Stellar Jade, 10,000 Credits, 2 Traveler's Guides, 5 Bottled Soda | Permanent new-player code — always active |
| RT4BPNA8FBS3 | 50 Stellar Jade, 10,000 Credits | Limited — redeem soon |
| OMEGA | 60 Stellar Jade, 1 Fuel | 4.6 Special Program code — expires fast |
| CREATIONNYMPH | 60 Stellar Jade, 1 Fuel, 1 Heroic Variable | 4.6 Special Program code — expires fast |
| FAREWELL | 60 Stellar Jade, 1 Fuel | 4.6 Special Program code — expires fast |
| IFYOUAREREADINGTHIS | 60 Stellar Jade | 4.6 Special Program code — expires fast |
| PEARLAPPRAISE | 3 Traveler's Guides, 2 Cold Joke | Limited event code |
The four Special Program codes — OMEGA, CREATIONNYMPH, FAREWELL and IFYOUAREREADINGTHIS — were released during the Version 4.6 "Dance With the Beast Before Moonrise" Special Program, which aired on September 20, 2026 (19:30 UTC+8). On HoYoverse's sister game Zenless Zone Zero, livestream codes have historically stayed live for only about two days, so if these four still work for you, redeem them immediately. Codes are case-sensitive and each can be used only once per account.
How do I redeem Honkai Star Rail codes?
There are two ways to redeem, and the web method is faster if you already know your server.
On the web (fastest):
- Go to the official redemption page at hsr.hoyoverse.com/gift
- Log in with the HoYoverse account linked to your Trailblazer
- Select your server (America, Europe, Asia or TW/HK/MO) and your character
- Paste the code exactly as written into the box and hit Redeem
- Open your in-game mailbox to claim the rewards
In-game:
- Launch Honkai: Star Rail and press Esc (or tap the menu on mobile) to open the pause menu
- Tap the "..." icon next to your namecard/profile
- Choose Redemption Code
- Type or paste the code and confirm
- Collect the rewards from your in-game mailbox
A common failure is redeeming on the wrong server — a code works per account, but you must have the correct region selected on the web page. If the site says "invalid," the code has almost certainly expired; if it says "already redeemed," you've used it before on that account.
Why do Honkai Star Rail codes expire so fast?
Most HSR codes are tied to livestream Special Programs, which air roughly once per version (about every six weeks) a few days before a new update drops. HoYoverse reveals three or four codes live on stream, and those are the short-lived ones — they're designed as a "watch the stream" reward and are typically pulled within a week or two. According to Pocket Tactics' October 12 update, the full set of 4.6 livestream codes had already begun rotating out, which is exactly why a stream code you saw a week ago may now be dead.
A second category is maintenance and compensation codes (the random letter-and-number strings like RT4BPNA8FBS3), which HoYoverse issues after server downtime or bug fixes. These are worth 50 Stellar Jade and 10,000 Credits on average and usually last a little longer than stream codes, but still only days to a couple of weeks.
The one code that never expires is STARRAILGIFT, the standing new-player reward. If you've just started your Trailblaze, redeem it first.
When do the next Honkai Star Rail codes drop?
The next reliable batch of codes will come with the Version 4.7 Special Program, which — based on the standard six-week version cadence — is projected for around early-to-mid November 2026 (this date is a projection from the release pattern, not an official announcement). Version 4.6 Phase 2 begins on October 21, 2026, so there may also be smaller event or compensation codes between now and then.
To catch stream codes while they're still live, watch the Special Program livestream when it airs, or check the official Honkai: Star Rail accounts on X and the in-game mail. We re-verify this page against official sources and the major trackers on each refresh, so bookmarking it is the low-effort option.
Are "free Stellar Jade generator" sites real?
No. This is the single most important thing to understand about HSR codes. HoYoverse distributes Stellar Jade only through official codes, in-game rewards, events, and the paid shop. There is no tool, website or app that "generates" Stellar Jade, and any site asking for your login, a "human verification" survey, or your account details in exchange for free Jade is a scam designed to steal your account or your money.
Legitimate free Stellar Jade comes from: daily login rewards and the Daily Training, Trailblaze Missions and Memory of Chaos / Pure Fiction / Apocalyptic Shadow end-game rewards, limited-time events, the Nameless Honor battle pass free track, and official codes like the ones on this page. Stick to hsr.hoyoverse.com/gift and you'll never get burned.

FAQ
How many Honkai Star Rail codes are active right now? As of October 17, 2026, seven codes are confirmed active: PEARLAPPRAISE, RT4BPNA8FBS3, OMEGA, CREATIONNYMPH, FAREWELL, IFYOUAREREADINGTHIS and the permanent STARRAILGIFT. The four Special Program codes from Version 4.6 are the most time-sensitive and may expire any day.
How much free Stellar Jade can I get from codes? The current limited codes are worth roughly 290 Stellar Jade combined (RT4BPNA8FBS3 at 50, plus OMEGA, CREATIONNYMPH, FAREWELL and IFYOUAREREADINGTHIS at 60 each), on top of Credits, Fuel, a Heroic Variable and Traveler's Guides. STARRAILGIFT adds another 50 Stellar Jade for new accounts. That's enough for roughly two Warps.
Where do I redeem Honkai Star Rail codes? On the web at hsr.hoyoverse.com/gift (log in, pick your server, paste the code), or in-game via the pause menu, the "..." icon next to your namecard, then Redemption Code. Rewards arrive in your in-game mailbox.
Why isn't my code working? The most common reason is that the code has expired — HSR stream codes often last only a day or two. Codes are also case-sensitive and one-time-per-account, and on the web you must have the correct server selected. If a code returns "invalid," it's dead; if it returns "already redeemed," you've used it on that account before.
When is the next Honkai Star Rail Special Program? The Version 4.7 Special Program is projected for around early-to-mid November 2026 based on the roughly six-week version cycle (not officially announced yet). New livestream codes almost always drop during that broadcast, and Version 4.6 Phase 2 starts on October 21, 2026.
Are there codes for free characters or Light Cones? No. Honkai: Star Rail codes grant currencies and materials — Stellar Jade, Credits, Fuel, Traveler's Guides and event items — never characters or Light Cones directly. You can, however, spend the Stellar Jade from these codes on Warps to try for new characters.
