Readables are collectible items in Honkai: Star Rail which can be obtained from open world areas or specific Missions. They feature stories, history, and character interactions that expand the in-game lore.

Readables can be re-read from the "Bookshelf" option in the Phone menu, where they are categorized by the world from which they were obtained. They can also be accessed via the Archives in the Passenger Cabin aboard the Astral Express.

Some Readables have multiple parts that are collected separately. In addition, some are time-gated and can only be obtained if the previous part has already been obtained.

Tutorial
