Honkai: Nexus Anima Parade of Floats Guide
All combat and meta information on this page is based on Evolution Test beta data and may change before the global release.
Official Story Cinematic
HoYoverse published Parade of Floats as an official Story Cinematics trailer alongside the Evolution Test launch, showcasing festive Iia streets filled with Anima companions and townspeople celebrating together. Siliconera and HoYoverse marketing frame the scene as both casual town life and competitive championship qualifier buildup ahead of Moneytree Channel spectacles.
The embedded official Parade of Floats cinematic above captures the celebratory tone Nanafey, Beebee, and allied companions experience between high-stakes Nexus encounters. Watch alongside Nanafey, Bai Mei & Olympia character context and Iia urban landmarks for district navigation during festival chapters.
In-Game Festival Integration
Parade of Floats appears in main story progression around Iia New Quarter and harbor districts rather than as standalone optional content. Expect photo mode opportunities, NPC crowd interactions, and decorative density increases across Pedestrian Street near Fleming Tower documented in Iia factions.
Festival timing may overlap Moneytree Channel commerce events—coordinate visits with Moneytree profile and waterfront celebrations for codex photography completion.
Connection to Nexus Battles
Story marketing positions Parade of Floats as narrative breathing room between Usurper confrontations like Evolution Battle against Blade. Use festival downtime to stabilize three-unit Aspect teams via Aspect synergy builds before pushing Nexus Battle progression walls.
Photography and Bonding
Commemorative photography introduced in the Evolution Test pairs naturally with Parade of Floats scenery. Capture Anima companions against float decorations for personal keepsakes and potential codex rewards detailed in Chroma Anima & bonding.
